Prototype

 
    uint1 mco_crypt_algorithm();

Arguments

void	No arguments

Description

This function returns the algorithm type supported by the encryption library currently linked.

Return Codes

algorithm

The algorithm type supported by the encryption library currently linked. The possible values are defined in header file mco.h as follows:

 
    MCO_CFG_NO_ENCRYPTION      0
    MCO_CFG_RC4_OLD_ENCRYPTION 1 /* RC4 encryption: for backward compatibility only */
    MCO_CFG_RC4_ENCRYPTION     2
    MCO_CFG_AES_ENCRYPTION     3

Example

     
    {
        mco_db_h con;
        MCO_RET rc;
        uint1 algorithm;
 
        ...
        rc = mco_db_connect( db_name, &con );
        if ( MCO_S_OK == rc )
        {
            algorithm = mco_crypt_algorithm();

            ...
            mco_db_disconnect(con);
        }
    }
