void(*const	GenerateKeyState )(void *keyState, const void *key)
	Initialize internal block cipher state for a given key.
void(*const	Encrypt )(const void *keyState, void *text)

Detailed Description

A block cipher algorithm implementation.

An implementation of a block cipher.

This structure contains the information and functions necessary to access a generic block cipher implementation. The implementation is stricctly the cipher algorithm itself, and does not contain any mode of operation. All encryption and decryption is handled as a single block at a time (of the cipher's block size). All necessary memory allocation for use of a block cipher is handled by the caller.
