longDescription = ''
|
|
Nettle is a cryptographic library that is designed to fit
|
|
easily in more or less any context: In crypto toolkits for
|
|
object-oriented languages (C++, Python, Pike, ...), in
|
|
applications like LSH or GNUPG, or even in kernel space. In
|
|
most contexts, you need more than the basic cryptographic
|
|
algorithms, you also need some way to keep track of available
|
|
algorithms, their properties and variants. You often have
|
|
some algorithm selection process, often dictated by a protocol
|
|
you want to implement.
|
|
|
|
And as the requirements of applications differ in subtle and
|
|
not so subtle ways, an API that fits one application well can
|
|
be a pain to use in a different context. And that is why
|
|
there are so many different cryptographic libraries around.
|
|
|
|
Nettle tries to avoid this problem by doing one thing, the
|
|
low-level crypto stuff, and providing a simple but general
|
|
interface to it. In particular, Nettle doesn't do algorithm
|
|
selection. It doesn't do memory allocation. It doesn't do any
|
|
I/O.
