A new version of Crypto++ has been released. As usual, you can download it
from http://www.cryptopp.com. The online reference manual has been updated
as well. There's a link to it from the above address.
Here are the changes in this version. (I forgot to send a release
annoucement for version 5.2 to the cryptopp-announce list, so here are the
changes in 5.2 as well.)
5.2.1 - fixed bug in the "dlltest" DLL testing program
- fixed compiling with STLport using VC .NET
- fixed compiling with -fPIC using GCC
- fixed compiling with -msse2 on systems without memalign()
- fixed inability to instantiate PanamaMAC
- fixed problems with inline documentation
5.2 - merged in changes for 5.01 - 5.0.4
- added support for using encoding parameters and key derivation parameters
with public key encryption (implemented by OAEP and DL/ECIES)
- added Camellia, SHACAL-2, Two-Track-MAC, Whirlpool, RIPEMD-320,
RIPEMD-128, RIPEMD-256, Base-32 coding
- added ThreadUserTimer for timing thread CPU usage
- added option for password-based key derivation functions
to iterate until a mimimum elapsed thread CPU time is reached
- added option (on by default) for DEFLATE compression to detect
uncompressible files and process them more quickly
- improved compatibility and performance on 64-bit platforms,
including Alpha, IA-64, x86-64, PPC64, Sparc64, and MIPS64
- fixed ONE_AND_ZEROS_PADDING to use 0x80 instead 0x01 as padding.
- fixed encoding/decoding of PKCS #8 privateKeyInfo to properly
handle optional attributes
