EVP_PBE_KEYGEN **pkeygen, EVP_PBE_KEYGEN_EX **keygen_ex);EVP_PBE_CipherInit() and EVP_PBE_CipherInit_ex() initialise an EVP_CIPHER_CTX ctx for encryption (en_de=1) or decryption (en_de=0) using the password pass of length passlen. The PBE algorithm type and parameters are extracted from an OID pbe_obj and parameters param.
EVP_PBE_CipherInit_ex() also allows the application to specify a library context libctx and property query propq to select appropriate algorithm implementations.
EVP_PBE_find() and EVP_PBE_find_ex() search for a matching algorithm using two parameters:
1. An algorithm type type which can be:
EVP_PBE_TYPE_OUTER - A PBE algorithm
EVP_PBE_TYPE_PRF - A pseudo-random function
EVP_PBE_TYPE_KDF - A key derivation function
2. A pbe_nid which can represent the algorithm identifier with parameters e.g. NID_pbeWithSHA1AndRC2_CBC or an algorithm class e.g. NID_pbes2.
They return the algorithm's cipher ID pcnid, digest ID pmnid and a key generation function for the algorithm pkeygen. EVP_PBE_CipherInit_ex() also returns an extended key generation function keygen_ex which takes a library context and property query.
If a NULL is supplied for any of pcnid, pmnid, pkeygen or pkeygen_ex then this parameter is not returned.
The arguments pbe_obj and param to EVP_PBE_CipherInit() and EVP_PBE_CipherInit_ex() together form an X509_ALGOR and can often be extracted directly from this structure.
Return value is 1 for success and 0 if an error occurred.
