7This library provides an easy API for the following features:
8
9 SSL/TLS
10 X509
11 SASL
12 RSA
13 Hashing (SHA1, MD5)
14 Ciphers (BlowFish, 3DES, AES)
15
16Functionality is supplied via plugins. This is useful for avoiding
17dependence on a particular crypto library and makes upgrading easier,
18as there is no need to recompile your application when adding or
19upgrading a crypto plugin. Also, by pushing crypto functionality into
20plugins, your application is free of legal issues, such as export
21regulation.
22
23And of course, you get a very simple crypto API for Qt, where you can
24do things like:
25
26 QString hash = QCA::SHA1::hashToString(blockOfData);

28Have fun!
