No, I've never heard of CryptAPI - is it an addon product, or something that comes with MSV Studio?<br />
<br />
Although I would love to have a way of doing it across platforms (ie: windows client/unix server), i'd be happy to start with just windows compatibility.

I can't give an A because it is platform specific to Windows OS, so it would be difficult to write a client for Windows and a server for Linux and get the encryption right since I would only know the Windows high level functions for encrypting / decrypting.<br />
<br />
But it does provide a start, and does allow me to at least get encrypted messages from a windows server to a windows client and back.

Hi all,<br />
<br />
I'm trying to figure out how to handle encryption. &nbsp;I would like to create some sort of public/private key system - not necessarily as indepth as PGP or anything, but I am working on a small program that operates on the net that I would like to have some encryption done for the data. &nbsp;Granted, I could use some basic rotating alphabet type algorythm, but I would really like a public / private key system. &nbsp;Any help would be most appreciated.

Encryption howto??

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.
