I seem to be having intelligence issues today - have I missed something
here? In filters.h (in Crypto++ 5.2.1) StringSource has the following
public interfaces/constructors available:
<snip>
//! string-based implementation of Source interface
class CRYPTOPP_DLL StringSource : public SourceTemplate<StringStore>
{
public:
StringSource(BufferedTransformation *attachment = NULL)
: SourceTemplate<StringStore>(attachment) {}
StringSource(const char *string, bool pumpAll, BufferedTransformation
*attachment = NULL)
: SourceTemplate<StringStore>(attachment) {SourceInitialize
(pumpAll, MakeParameters("InputBuffer", ConstByteArrayParameter
(string)));}
StringSource(const byte *string, unsigned int length, bool pumpAll,
BufferedTransformation *attachment = NULL)
: SourceTemplate<StringStore>(attachment) {SourceInitialize
(pumpAll, MakeParameters("InputBuffer", ConstByteArrayParameter(string,
length)));}
StringSource(const std::string &string, bool pumpAll,
BufferedTransformation *attachment = NULL)
: SourceTemplate<StringStore>(attachment) {SourceInitialize
(pumpAll, MakeParameters("InputBuffer", ConstByteArrayParameter
(string)));}
};
</snip>
I am trying to use the third (const byte* etc...):
std::string data;
StringSource (key.data (), key.size (), true,
new HexEncoder (new StringSink (data)));
key is of type SecByteBlock. However, when compiling (GCC 3.4.2 on
Linux) I get this error:
no match for call to `(CryptoPP::StringSource) (byte*, size_t, bool,
CryptoPP::BufferedTransformation*)'
Isn't that what I'm passing the StringSource constructor!? I've tried
the obvious (changing byte* to const and size_t to uint - no
difference).
Or does anyone have a better method of encoding a SecByteBlock
class/content?
Regards
Jim
