What is it?
Crypto++ is a free C++ class library of cryptographic schemes. Currently the
library consists of the following, some of which are other people's code,
repackaged into classes.

a class hierarchy with an API defined by abstract base classes

Proposed AES (Rijndael) and other AES candidates: RC6, MARS, Twofish,
Serpent, CAST-256

other symmetric block ciphers: IDEA, DES, Triple DES (DES-EDE2 and
DES-EDE3), DESX (DES-XEX3), RC2, RC5,
Blowfish, Diamond2, TEA, SAFER, 3-WAY, GOST, SHARK, CAST-128, Square,
Skipjack

generic cipher modes: CBC padded, CBC ciphertext stealing (CTS), CFB, OFB,
counter mode

stream ciphers: Panama, ARC4, SEAL, WAKE, Sapphire II, BlumBlumShub

public key cryptography: RSA, DSA, ElGamal, Nyberg-Rueppel (NR),
BlumGoldwasser, Rabin, Rabin-Williams (RW), LUC, LUCELG

padding schemes for public-key systems: PKCS#1 v2.0, OAEP, PSSR, IEEE P1363
EMSA2

key agreement schemes: Diffie-Hellman (DH), Unified Diffie-Hellman (DH2),
Menezes-Qu-Vanstone (MQV), LUCDIF, XTR-DH

elliptic curve cryptography: ECDSA, ECNR, ECIES, ECDHC, ECMQVC

one-way hash functions: SHA-1, MD2, MD4, MD5, HAVAL, RIPEMD-160, Tiger,
SHA-2 (SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512), Panama

message authentication codes: MD5-MAC, HMAC, XOR-MAC, CBC-MAC, DMAC

cipher constructions based on hash functions: Luby-Rackoff, MDC

pseudo random number generators (PRNG): ANSI X9.17 appendix C, PGP's
RandPool

Shamir's secret sharing scheme and Rabin's information dispersal algorithm
(IDA)

DEFLATE (RFC 1951) compression/decompression with gzip (RFC 1952) and zlib
(RFC 1950) format support
fast multi-precision integer (bignum) and polynomial operations

finite field arithmetics, including GF(p) and GF(2^n)

prime number generation and verification

various miscellaneous modules such as base 64 coding and 32-bit CRC

class wrappers for these operating system features (optional):
high resolution timers on Windows, Unix, and MacOS
Berkeley and Windows style sockets
Windows named pipes
/dev/random and /dev/urandom on Linux and FreeBSD
Microsoft's CryptGenRandom on Windows

A high level interface for most of the above, using a filter/pipeline
metaphor
benchmarks and validation testing

One purpose of Crypto++ is to act as a repository of public domain (not
copyrighted) source code. Although the library is copyrighted as a
compilation, the individual files in it (except for a few exceptions listed
in the license) are in the public domain.

Can be compiled with GCC 2.95.2 and also GCC 3.0.2
