gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(3)	     gnutls	       gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(3)

NAME
     gnutls_cipher_encrypt3 - API function

SYNOPSIS
     #include <gnutls/crypto.h>

     int  gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(gnutls_cipher_hd_t  handle, const void * ptext,
     size_t ptext_len, void * ctext, size_t * ctext_len, unsigned flags);

ARGUMENTS
     gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle
		 is a gnutls_cipher_hd_t type

     const void * ptext
		 the data to encrypt

     size_t ptext_len
		 the length of data to encrypt

     void * ctextthe encrypted data

     size_t * ctext_len
		 the length of encrypted data (initially must hold  the  maximum
		 available size)

     unsigned flags
		 flags for padding

DESCRIPTION
     This  function will encrypt the given data using the algorithm specified by
     the context. For block ciphers,  ptext_len is typically a multiple  of  the
     block  size.  If  not, the caller can instruct the function to pad the last
     block according to  flags .  Currently, the only available  padding  scheme
     is GNUTLS_CIPHER_PADDING_PKCS7.

     If   ctext is not NULL, it must hold enough space to store resulting cipher
     text. To check the required size, this function can be called  with   ctext
     set  to NULL. Then  ctext_len will be updated without performing actual en-
     cryption.

RETURNS
     Zero or a negative error code on error.

SINCE
     3.7.7
