Howto: Qt and RSA crypto

[npclaudiu]

To be sure, you can compile OpenSSL from source with the same compiler that you compile your qt app (mingw's g++ that comes with qt). The binary distribution that you use is probably compiled with msvc++ in which case you could also try to simply extract the import libraries directly from dlls.

Well I just gave up on Crypto++ - it's too difficult to use and wheres the docs?!
+ I think that was designed by an abstraction astronaut!

I rolled back to the original sources that use OpenSSL, recompiled and it worked first time!!! ???
I didn't need to recompile the OpenSSL dll using Qt's MinGW either, the binary distro worked.

Now I'm totally confused as to why it works today but not a few days ago.

The problem seem solved but maybe this information could be interesting:
There is a Qt Cryptographic architecture at the URL http://delta.affinix.com/qca/
i've used it under windows but only for md5crypt so i'm not sure it could be used in this case.
Bye.
