Expand description

Cipher creation trait.

It can be used for creation of block modes, synchronous and asynchronous stream ciphers.

Required Associated Types§

source

type KeySize: ArrayLength<u8>

Key size in bytes

source

type NonceSize: ArrayLength<u8>

Nonce size in bytes

Required Methods§

source

fn new(key: &CipherKey<Self>, nonce: &Nonce<Self>) -> Self

Create new stream cipher instance from key and nonce arrays.

Provided Methods§

source

fn new_from_slices(key: &[u8], nonce: &[u8]) -> Result<Self, InvalidLength>

Create new stream cipher instance from variable length key and nonce given as byte slices.
