Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.42 (unreleased) ------------------------------------------------- * Major API cleanup. Applications need to be converted to the new API. See README.apichanges for hints on how to do that. * New function gcry_mpi_dump to help in debugging. * Added alternative interface for asymmetric cryptography. * Removed `libgcrypt errno' concept. * Renamed all libgcrypt specific types. * Use libgpg-error for error handling. * CRC-32, CRC-32 a'la RFC 1510, CRC-24 a'la RFC 2440 is now supported. * SHA-256 is now supported. * The public RSA exponent can now be specified in key generation. * The random module won't print the "not enough random bytes available" anymore. A new progress status is issued instead. * CBC-MAC for block ciphers is now supported, by using a GCRY_CIPHER_CBC_MAC cipher flag. * CTR mode for block ciphers is now supported. * RSA blinding is now supported and is used automatically for RSA decryption. It can be explicitely disabled by using the `no-blinding' symbol in the `flags' S-Expression or by using the GCRY_AC_FLAG_DATA_NO_BLINDING flag when using the ac interface. * Interface changes relative to the 1.1.12 release: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ GCRY_MPI DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_mpi_t GcryMPI DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_mpi_t GCRY_SEXP DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_sexp_t GcrySexp DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_sexp_t GCRY_CIPHER_HD DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_cipher_hd_t GcryCipherHd DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_cipher_hd_t GCRY_MD_HD DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_md_hd_t GcryMDHd DEPRECATED; Use: gcry_md_hd_t gcry_error_t NEW gcry_err_code_t NEW gcry_err_source_t NEW gcry_err_make NEW gcry_error NEW gcry_err_code NEW gcry_err_source NEW gcry_err_code_from_errno NEW gcry_err_code_to_errno NEW gcry_err_make_from_errno NEW gcry_error_from_errno NEW gcry_strsource NEW GCRYERR_{some error code} REMOVED; Use GPG_ERR_* from libgpg-error instead. gcry_errno REMOVED gcry_sexp_canon_len CHANGED gcry_sexp_build_array NEW gcry_mpi_scan CHANGED: New argument to separate in/out args. gcry_mpi_print CHANGED: Ditto. gcry_mpi_dump NEW gcry_cipher_open CHANGED gcry_cipher_reset NEW gcry_cipher_register NEW gcry_cipher_unregister NEW gcry_cipher_list NEW gcry_cipher_algo_keylen REPLACED macro with function. gcry_cipher_algo_blklen REPLACED macro with function. gcry_pk_register NEW gcry_pk_unregister NEW gcry_pk_list NEW gcry_pk_decrypt ENHANCED: Allows flag to return complete S-expression. gcry_md_open CHANGED gcry_md_copy CHANGED gcry_md_is_enabled NEW gcry_md_is_secure NEW gcry_md_register NEW gcry_md_unregister NEW gcry_md_list NEW gcry_ac_data_t NEW gcry_ac_key_t NEW gcry_ac_key_pair_t NEW gcry_ac_handle_t NEW gcry_ac_key_spec_rsa_t NEW gcry_ac_data_new NEW gcry_ac_data_destroy NEW gcry_ac_data_set NEW gcry_ac_data_copy NEW gcry_ac_data_length NEW gcry_ac_data_get_name NEW gcry_ac_data_get_index NEW gcry_ac_data_clear NEW gcry_ac_open NEW gcry_ac_close NEW gcry_ac_key_init NEW gcry_ac_key_pair_generate NEW gcry_ac_key_pair_extract NEW gcry_ac_key_data_get NEW gcry_ac_key_test NEW gcry_ac_key_get_nbits NEW gcry_ac_key_get_grip NEW gcry_ac_key_destroy NEW gcry_ac_key_pair_destroy NEW gcry_ac_data_encrypt NEW gcry_ac_data_decrypt NEW gcry_ac_data_sign NEW gcry_ac_data_verify NEW gcry_ac_id_to_name NEW gcry_ac_name_to_id NEW gcry_handler_progress_t NEW gcry_handler_alloc_t NEW gcry_handler_secure_check_t NEW gcry_handle_realloc_t NEW gcry_handler_free_t NEW gcry_handler_no_mem_t NEW gcry_handler_error_t NEW gcry_handler_log_t NEW ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Noteworthy changes in version 1.1.12 (2003-01-20) ------------------------------------------------- * gcry_pk_sign, gcry_pk_verify and gcry_pk_encrypt can now handle an optional pkcs1 flags parameter in the S-expression.
