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();
