General purpose cryptographic library - C++ development

Crypto++ is library for creating C++ programs which use cryptographic algorithms. The library uses a Pipes & Filters architecture with heavy use of templates and abstract base classes. The cryptographic tools include:

 * Authenticated encryption schemes (GCM, CCM, EAX),
 * High speed stream ciphers (Panama, Sosemanuk, Salsa20, XSalsa20),
 * AES and candidates (Rijndael, RC6, MARS, Twofish, Serpent, CAST-256),
 * Other symmetric block ciphers (IDEA, Triple-DES, Camellia, SEED,
   RC5, Blowfish, TEA, XTEA, Skipjack, SHACAL-2),
 * Block cipher modes of operation (ECB, CBC, CTS, CFB, OFB, CTR),
 * Message authentication codes (VMAC, HMAC, CMAC, CBC-MAC, DMAC,
   Two-Track-MAC),
 * Hash functions (SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, Tiger,
   WHIRLPOOL, RIPEMD-128, RIPEMD-256, RIPEMD-160, RIPEMD-320),
 * Public-key cryptography (RSA, DSA, ElGamal, NR, RW, LUC, LUCELG,
   DLIES, ESIGN),
 * Padding schemes for public-key systems (PKCS#1, OAEP, PSS, PSSR,
   EMSA2, EMSA5),
 * Key agreement schemes (DH, MQV, LUCDIF, XTR-DH),
 * Elliptic curve cryptography (ECDSA, ECNR, ECIES, ECDH, ECMQV),
 * Backwards compatibility algorithms (MD2, MD4, MD5, Panama Hash, DES,
   ARC4, SEAL 3.0, WAKE, WAKE-OFB, DESX, RC2, SAFER, 3-WAY, GOST,
   SHARK, CAST-128, Square),
 * Pseudo-random number generators,

This package contains the header files needed for developing using the Crypto++ class library and the static library with libtool supoport.
