## Detailed Description

EAX block cipher base implementation.

Base implementation of the AuthenticatedSymmetricCipher interface

Since
  Crypto++ 5.6.0

Definition at line 18 of file eax.h.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ AlgorithmName()

std::string EAX_Base::AlgorithmName | ( |  | ) | const
| inline virtual

Provides the name of this algorithm.

Returns
  the standard algorithm name

The standard algorithm name can be a name like AES or AES/GCM. Some algorithms do not have standard names yet. For example, there is no standard algorithm name for Shoup's ECIES.

Reimplemented from AuthenticatedSymmetricCipher.

Definition at line 22 of file eax.h.

## ◆ AlgorithmProvider()

std::string EAX_Base::AlgorithmProvider | ( |  | ) | const
| inline virtual

Retrieve the provider of this algorithm.

Returns
  the algorithm provider

The algorithm provider can be a name like "C++", "SSE", "NEON", "AESNI", "ARMv8" and "Power8". C++ is standard C++ code. Other labels, like SSE, usually indicate a specialized implementation using instructions from a higher instruction set architecture (ISA). Future labels may include external hardware like a hardware security module (HSM).

Generally speaking Wei Dai's original IA-32 ASM code falls under "SSE2". Labels like "SSSE3" and "SSE4.1" follow after Wei's code and use intrinsics instead of ASM.

Algorithms which combine different instructions or ISAs provide the dominant one. For example on x86 `AES/GCM` returns "AESNI" rather than "CLMUL" or "AES+SSE4.1" or "AES+CLMUL" or "AES+SSE4.1+CLMUL".

Note
  Provider is not universally implemented yet.

Since
  Crypto++ 8.0

Reimplemented from AuthenticatedSymmetricCipher.

Reimplemented in EAX_Final< T_BlockCipher, T_IsEncryption >.

Definition at line 24 of file eax.h.

## ◆ MinKeyLength()

size_t EAX_Base::MinKeyLength | ( |  | ) | const
| inline virtual

Returns smallest valid key length.

Returns
  the minimum key length, in bytes

Implements SimpleKeyingInterface.

Definition at line 26 of file eax.h.

## ◆ MaxKeyLength()

size_t EAX_Base::MaxKeyLength | ( |  | ) | const
| inline virtual

Returns largest valid key length.

Returns
  the maximum key length, in bytes

Implements SimpleKeyingInterface.

Definition at line 28 of file eax.h.

## ◆ DefaultKeyLength()

size_t EAX_Base::DefaultKeyLength | ( |  | ) | const
| inline virtual

Returns default key length.

Returns
  the default key length, in bytes

Implements SimpleKeyingInterface.

## ◆ GetValidKeyLength()

size_t EAX_Base::GetValidKeyLength | ( | size_t | keylength | ) | const
| inline virtual

Returns a valid key length for the algorithm.

Parameters

  keylength | the size of the key, in bytes

Returns
  the valid key length, in bytes

keylength is provided in bytes, not bits. If keylength is less than MIN_KEYLENGTH, then the function returns MIN_KEYLENGTH. If keylength is greater than MAX_KEYLENGTH, then the function returns MAX_KEYLENGTH. if If keylength is a multiple of KEYLENGTH_MULTIPLE, then keylength is returned. Otherwise, the function returns a lower multiple of KEYLENGTH_MULTIPLE.

Implements SimpleKeyingInterface.

Definition at line 32 of file eax.h.

## ◆ IsValidKeyLength()

bool EAX_Base::IsValidKeyLength | ( | size_t | keylength | ) | const

Parameters

  keylength | the requested keylength

Returns
  true if keylength is valid, false otherwise
