NAME

6       gnutls_aead_cipher_init - API function
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <gnutls/crypto.h>
10
11       int     gnutls_aead_cipher_init(gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t    *    handle,
12       gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t cipher, const gnutls_datum_t * key);
13

ARGUMENTS

15       gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t * handle
16                   is a gnutls_aead_cipher_hd_t type.
17
18       gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t cipher
19                   the authenticated-encryption algorithm to use
20
21       const gnutls_datum_t * key
22                   The key to be used for encryption
23

DESCRIPTION

25       This function will initialize an context that can be used  for  encryp‐
26       tion/decryption  of  data. This will effectively use the current crypto
27       backend in use by gnutls or the cryptographic accelerator in use.
