Hello,

I am writing an application where I need to do encryption
in place, on a data which is splitted on multiple buffers, avoiding
the solution where everything is copied in one big buffer, encrypted
and then copied back. I want to use the EVP interface and not
lower level functions.

I am using the EVP interface with Blowfish as encryption algorithm.
I wrote a very simple test program  where EVP_EncryptUpdate (each of the

calls encrypts 16 bytes) is called  two consecutive times, followed by
an
EVP_EncryptFinal which addes 8 more bytes, so the total size is 40
bytes.
Decryption is done in a similar manner, EVP_Decrypt update called twice
and then
Decrypt Final.  However, the first EVP_DecryptUpdate called on the first
16 bytes
returns 8 when decrypting so in the end the EVP_DecryptFinal fails.

Any ideas what might be the problem?

thanks,

-- Cristina
