This is useful for avoiding +dependence on a particular crypto library and makes upgrading easier, +as there is no need to recompile your application when adding or +upgrading a crypto plugin. Also, by pushing crypto functionality into +plugins, your application is free of legal issues, such as export +regulation. + +And of course, you get a very simple crypto API for Qt, where you can +do things like: + + QString hash = QCA::SHA1::hashToString(blockOfData); + +Have fun! + |
