Libmcrypt is a thread-safe library providing a uniform interface |
| 2 |
to access several block and stream encryption algorithms. |

Check the manual page for more information on libmcrypt. |

| 5 |
Look at COPYING for license information and the individual files for more |
| 6 |
information. COPYING applies only for the mcrypt program and not the |
| 7 |
algorithms which most of them are public domain. |

** Some hints: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
To include algorithms in the library use the |
| 16 |
--with-included-algos parameter in the configure script. |
| 17 |
Eg: ./configure --with-included-algos="rijndael-128 arcfour stream cbc cfb" |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
That way you can statically link the library and be 100% thread safe, |
| 20 |
since dlopen is not always thread safe. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
To disable dynamic loading use the --disable-dynamic-loading parameter |
| 24 |
to the configure script. Use with care. You must include some algorithms, |
| 25 |
to do this, or you'll not be able to work. |
