32 * QCryptoCipher:
34 * The QCryptoCipher object provides a way to perform encryption
35 * and decryption of data, with a standard API, regardless of the
36 * algorithm used. It further isolates the calling code from the
37 * details of the specific underlying implementation, whether
38 * built-in, libgcrypt or nettle.
40 * Each QCryptoCipher object is capable of performing both
41 * encryption and decryption, and can operate in a number
42 * or modes including ECB, CBC.
