NAME
EVP_rc2_cbc, EVP_rc2_cfb, EVP_rc2_cfb64, EVP_rc2_ecb, EVP_rc2_ofb, EVP_rc2_40_cbc, EVP_rc2_64_cbc - EVP RC2
cipher
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/evp.h>
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cbc(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cfb(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cfb64(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_ecb(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_ofb(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_40_cbc(void);
const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_64_cbc(void);
DESCRIPTION
The RC2 encryption algorithm for EVP.
EVP_rc2_cbc(), EVP_rc2_cfb(), EVP_rc2_cfb64(), EVP_rc2_ecb(), EVP_rc2_ofb()
RC2 encryption algorithm in CBC, CFB, ECB and OFB modes respectively. This is a variable key length cipher
with an additional parameter called "effective key bits" or "effective key length". By default both are set
to 128 bits.
EVP_rc2_40_cbc(), EVP_rc2_64_cbc()
RC2 algorithm in CBC mode with a default key length and effective key length of 40 and 64 bits.
WARNING: these functions are obsolete. Their usage should be replaced with the EVP_rc2_cbc(),
EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl() functions to set the key length and effective key
length.
NOTES
Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of calling these functions multiple times and
should consider using EVP_CIPHER_fetch(3) instead. See "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information.
RETURN VALUES
These functions return an EVP_CIPHER structure that contains the implementation of the symmetric cipher. See
EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_CIPHER structure.
