NAME
       gnutls_cipher_encrypt3 - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <gnutls/crypto.h>

       int gnutls_cipher_encrypt3(gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle, const void *
       ptext, size_t ptext_len, void * ctext, size_t * ctext_len, unsigned
       flags);

ARGUMENTS
       gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle
                   is a gnutls_cipher_hd_t type

       const void * ptext
                   the data to encrypt

       size_t ptext_len
                   the length of data to encrypt

       void * ctext
                   the encrypted data

       size_t * ctext_len
                   the length of encrypted data (initially must hold the
                   maximum available size)

       unsigned flags
                   flags for padding

DESCRIPTION
       This function will encrypt the given data using the algorithm specified
       by the context. For block ciphers,  ptext_len is typically a multiple
       of the block size. If not, the caller can instruct the function to pad
       the last block according to  flags .  Currently, the only available
       padding scheme is GNUTLS_CIPHER_PADDING_PKCS7.

       If  ctext is not NULL, it must hold enough space to store resulting
       cipher text. To check the required size, this function can be called
       with  ctext set to NULL. Then  ctext_len will be updated without
       performing actual encryption.

RETURNS
       Zero or a negative error code on error.
