salt encryption with libopenssl

[ostar2]

Hi, I need help with a file I want to decrypt/encrypt with the salt encryption algorithm. I want to do using the open openssl library. However, I do not know which header to include for this. I also could not find an example of this algorithm in c++. An example would be helpful to get an idea of the way its done. Then I can attempt to create a program that decrypts/encrypts the file. Thanks.

Unfortunately the documentation for OpenSSL is sparse and incomplete making it hard to learn at first.

This is an active OpenSSL forum that should be able to answer ur question(s).

It is helpful to an extent but I dont even know the very basics of openssl. If you or someone else could provide an example it would be very much appreciated. Thanks
