Crypt::Cipher::RC6(3) User Contributed Perl DocumentationCrypt::Cipher::RC6(3)

NAME
       Crypt::Cipher::RC6 - Symmetric cipher RC6, key size: 64-1024 bits

SYNOPSIS
	 ### example 1
	 use Crypt::Mode::CBC;

	 my $key = '...'; # length has to be valid key size for	this cipher
	 my $iv	= '...';  # 16 bytes
	 my $cbc = Crypt::Mode::CBC->new('RC6');
	 my $ciphertext	= $cbc->encrypt("secret	data", $key, $iv);

	 ### example 2 (slower)
	 use Crypt::CBC;
	 use Crypt::Cipher::RC6;

	 my $key = '...'; # length has to be valid key size for	this cipher
	 my $iv	= '...';  # 16 bytes
	 my $cbc = Crypt::CBC->new( -cipher=>'Cipher::RC6', -key=>$key,	-iv=>$iv );
	 my $ciphertext	= $cbc->encrypt("secret	data");

DESCRIPTION
       This module implements the RC6 cipher. Provided interface is compliant
       with Crypt::CBC module.

       BEWARE: This module implements just elementary
       "one-block-(en|de)cryption" operation - if you want to encrypt/decrypt
       generic data you	have to	use some of the	cipher block modes - check for
       example Crypt::Mode::CBC, Crypt::Mode::CTR or Crypt::CBC	(which will be
       slower).

METHODS
   new
	$c = Crypt::Cipher::RC6->new($key);
	#or
	$c = Crypt::Cipher::RC6->new($key, $rounds);

   encrypt
	$ciphertext = $c->encrypt($plaintext);

   decrypt
	$plaintext = $c->decrypt($ciphertext);

	 $c->keysize;
