NAME

Crypt::Mac::XCBC - Message authentication code XCBC

SYNOPSIS

   ### Functional interface:
   use Crypt::Mac::XCBC qw( xcbc xcbc_hex );

   # calculate MAC from string/buffer
   $xcbc_raw = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'data string');
   $xcbc_hex = xcbc_hex($cipher_name, $key, 'data string');
   $xcbc_b64 = xcbc_b64($cipher_name, $key, 'data string');

   ### OO interface:
   use Crypt::Mac::XCBC;

   $d = Crypt::Mac::XCBC->new($cipher_name, $key);
   $d->add('any data');
   $d->addfile('filename.dat');
   $d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);
   $result_raw = $d->mac;    # raw bytes
   $result_hex = $d->hexmac; # hexadecimal form
   $result_b64 = $d->b64mac; # Base64 form

DESCRIPTION

Provides an interface to the XCBC message authentication code (MAC) algorithm.

EXPORT

Nothing is exported by default.

You can export selected functions:

  use Crypt::Mac::XCBC qw(xcbc xcbc_hex );

Or all of them at once:

  use Crypt::Mac::XCBC ':all';

FUNCTIONS

xcbc

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its XCBC message authentication code encoded as a binary string.

 $xcbc_raw = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'data string');
 #or
 $xcbc_raw = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

xcbc_hex

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its XCBC message authentication code encoded as a hexadecimal string.

 $xcbc_hex = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'data string');
 #or
 $xcbc_hex = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

xcbc_b64

Logically joins all arguments into a single string, and returns its XCBC message authentication code encoded as a BASE64 string.

 $xcbc_b64 = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'data string');
 #or
 $xcbc_b64 = xcbc($cipher_name, $key, 'any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

METHODS

The OO interface provides the same set of functions as Crypt::Mac.

new

 $d = Crypt::Mac::XCBC->new($cipher_name, $key);

clone

 $d->clone();

reset

 $d->reset();

add

 $d->add('any data');
 #or
 $d->add('any data', 'more data', 'even more data');

addfile

 $d->addfile('filename.dat');
 #or
 $d->addfile(*FILEHANDLE);

mac

 $result_raw = $d->mac();

hexmac

 $result_hex = $d->hexmac();

b64mac

 $result_base64 = $d->b64mac();
