Qt Cryptographic Architecture (QCA) ----------------------------------- Description ----------- QCA is a library that provides an easy API for a range of cryptographic features, including SSL/TLS, X.509 certificates, SASL, OpenPGP, smartcards, and much more. Functionality is supplied via plugins. This is useful for avoiding dependence on a particular crypto library and makes upgrading easier, as there is no need to recompile your application when adding or upgrading a crypto plugin. In order for QCA to be of much use, you'll want to install some plugins. Install ------- For installation or compiling instructions, see the INSTALL file. License ------- This library is licensed under the Lesser GNU General Public License. See the COPYING file for more information. History ------- QCA was originally created to support the security needs of the Psi XMPP/Jabber client project ( https://psi-im.org/ ). Old Changes list ---------------- New in 2.1.0 - Ported to Qt5 (Qt4 also supported) - New building system. CMake instead of qmake - Added CTR symetric cipher support to qca core - Added no padding encryption algorithm to qca core - qcatool2 renamed to qcatool - fixed crash in qcatool when only options provided on command line without any commands - Use plugins installation path as hard-coded runtime plugins search path - Added new functiion pluginPaths - Added functions to get runtime QCA version - Fixed 'no watch file' warnings in FileWatch - Added EME_PKCS1v15_SSL Encryption Algorithm - New implementation of SafeTimer to prevent crashes - Updated certificates for unittests - RSA Keys are permutable, can encrypt with private and decrypt with public - Add unloadProvider() function for symmetry with insertProvider() - Overloaded "makeKey" to derive a password depending on a time factor - Remove pointer to deinit() routine from QCoreApplication at deinitialization - Fix a couple of crashes where all plugins might not be available - Fix operating on keys with unrelated expired subkeys - Fixed timers in Synchronizer class - Dropped randomunittest - Fixed many unittests - qca-gnupg: internal refactoring - qca-gnupg: try both gpg and gpg2 to find gnupg executable - qca-gnupg: fixed some encodings problem - qca-ossl: no DSA_* dl groups in FIPS specification - qca-ossl: added missed signatures to CRLContext - qca-ossl: fixed certs time zone - qca-nss: fixed KeyLenght for Cipher - qca-botan: fixed getting result size for ciphers New in 2.0.3 - Bugfix release, forward and backward compatible with 2.0.x - Fix compilation when using Qt/Windows SDK New in 2.0.2 - Bugfix release, forward and backward compatible with 2.0.x - Fix compatibility with Qt 4.5 when QCA::Initializer appears before QApp - Don't convert to secure memory when Hash::update(QByteArray) is used - Use configure.exe instead of configwin.bat New in 2.0.1 - Bugfix release, forward and backward compatible with 2.0.x - Ability to build as a Mac framework (and build this way by default) - On non-Mac Unix, the pkgconfig file is always qca2.pc, even in debug mode - Certificates containing wildcards are now matched properly - DirWatch/FileWatch now work - Keystore writes now work - Don't delete objects in their event handler (prevents Qt 4.4 warnings) - Fix potential hang with TLS in server mode - Windows version can be configured/installed using paths with spaces Old Developer list ------------------ Project Lead/Maintainer (2003-2012): Justin Karneges <[email protected]> (March 2007 - August 2007 under Barracuda Networks employment) Development, Documentation, Unittests (2004-2009): Brad Hards <[email protected]> Development (2013-2017) Ivan Romanov <[email protected]> Special Thanks: Portugal Telecom (SAPO division), for sponsorship Alon Bar-Lev, for smart card and design assistance Jack Lloyd, for Botan and X.509 mentoring L.
