Detailed Description

Header file for "tool" classes used in QCA.

These classes differ from those in qca_support.h, in that they have some cryptographic relationship, and require secure memory.

Note:
You should not use this header directly from an application. You should just use #include <QtCrypto> instead.

Function Documentation

QCA_EXPORT void* qca_secure_alloc ( int  bytes  ) 

Allocate a block of memory from the secure memory pool.

This is intended to be used when working with C libraries.

Parameters:
bytes the number of bytes to allocate

QCA_EXPORT void qca_secure_free ( void *  p  ) 

Free (de-allocate) a block of memory that has been previously allocated from the secure memory pool.

This is intended to be used when working with C libraries.

Parameters:
p pointer to the block of memory to be free'd

QCA_EXPORT void* qca_secure_realloc ( void *  p,
int  bytes 
)

Resize (re-allocate) a block of memory that has been previously allocated from the secure memory pool.

Parameters:
p pointer to the block of memory to be resized.
bytes the new size that is required.
