Cryptographic providers
Users should not call functions of the providers directly. Instead, use:
Netsys_tls
for using TLSNetsys_ciphers
for using (symmetric) ciphersNetsys_digests
for using digestsNetx509_pubkey
and Netx509_pubkey_crypto
for using public-key
ciphersval current_tls : unit -> (module Netsys_crypto_types.TLS_PROVIDER)
Return the current TLS provider. Only available if such a provider
is linked into the executable. Do this by calling the init
function
of the provider, e.g. Nettls_gnutls.init
.
val current_tls_opt : unit -> (module Netsys_crypto_types.TLS_PROVIDER) option
Same as current_tls
but it returns None
if TLS is unavailable
val current_symmetric_crypto : unit -> (module Netsys_crypto_types.SYMMETRIC_CRYPTO)
Returns the current provider for symmetric cryptography. This provider is always available, but may be empty (not implementing any ciphers).
val current_pubkey_crypto : unit -> (module Netsys_crypto_types.PUBKEY_CRYPTO)
Returns the current provider for public key cryptography. This provider is always available, but may be empty (not implementing any ciphers).
val current_digests : unit -> (module Netsys_crypto_types.DIGESTS)
Returns the current provider for cryptographic digests. This provider is always available, but may be empty (not implementing any digest).
