Introduction</a></h2>
Heimdal libhcrypto library is a implementation many crypto algorithms, among others: AES, SHA, DES, RSA, Camellia and many help function.<p>
hcrypto provies a OpenSSL compatible interface libcrypto interface and is licensed under a 3 clause BSD license (GPL compatible).<p>

Control functions</a></h3>
Functions controlling general behavior, like adding algorithms, are documented in this module: <a class="el" href="group__hcrypto__core.html">hcrypto function controlling behavior</a> .<h3><a class="anchor" name="return_values">
Return values</a></h3>
Return values are diffrent in this module to be compatible with OpenSSL interface. The diffrence is that on success 1 is returned instead of the customary 0.<h3><a class="anchor" name="History">
History</a></h3>
Eric Young implemented DES in the library libdes, that grew into libcrypto in the ssleay package. ssleay went into recession and then got picked up by the OpenSSL (htp://www.openssl.org/) project.<p>
libhcrypto is an independent implementation with no code decended from ssleay/openssl. Both includes some common imported code, for example the AES implementation. </div>
