gnutls_cipher_init - API function
#include <gnutls/crypto.h> int gnutls_cipher_init(gnutls_cipher_hd_t * handle, gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t cipher, const gnutls_datum_t * key, const gnutls_datum_t * iv);
gnutls_cipher_hd_t * handle is a gnutls_cipher_hd_t type gnutls_cipher_algorithm_t cipher the encryption algorithm to use const gnutls_datum_t * key the key to be used for encryption/decryption const gnutls_datum_t * iv the IV to use (if not applicable set NULL)
This function will initialize the handle context to be usable for encryption/decryption of data. This will effectively use the current crypto backend in use by gnutls or the cryptographic accelerator in use.
Zero or a negative error code on error.
