void setkey(const char *
key);
The
setkey() function provides access to an implementation-defined
encoding algorithm. The argument of
setkey() is an array of length 64
bytes containing only the bytes with numerical value of 0 and 1. If this
string is divided into groups of 8, the low-order bit in each group is
ignored; this gives a 56-bit key which is used by the algorithm. This is the
key that shall be used with the algorithm to encode a string
block
passed to
encrypt().
The
setkey() function shall not change the setting of
errno if
successful. An application wishing to check for error situations should set
errno to 0 before calling
setkey(). If
errno is non-zero
on return, an error has occurred.
The
setkey() function need not be reentrant. A function that is not
required to be reentrant is not required to be thread-safe.
No values are returned.
The
setkey() function shall fail if:
- ENOSYS
- The functionality is not supported on this implementation.
The following sections are informative.
None.
Decoding need not be implemented in all environments. This is related to
government restrictions in some countries on encryption and decryption
routines. Historical practice has been to ship a different version of the
encryption library without the decryption feature in the routines supplied.
Thus the exported version of
encrypt() does encoding but not decoding.
None.
