Both includes some common imported code, for example the AES implementation. </p> </div></div><!-- PageDoc --> </div><!-- contents --> <hr size="1"><address style="text-align: right;"><small> Generated on Tue Nov 15 2022 14:04:26 for Heimdal crypto library by <a href="http://www.doxygen.org/index.html"><img src="doxygen.png" alt="doxygen" align="middle" border="0"></a> 1.9.1</small></address> </body> </html> |
