- Crypt::OpenSSL::Bignum is an XS perl module designed to provide basic
- access to the OpenSSL multiprecision integer arithmetic libraries.
- Presently, many though not all of the arithmetic operations that
- OpenSSL provides are exposed to perl. In addition, this module can be
- used to provide access to bignum values produced by other OpenSSL
- modules, such as key parameters from Crypt::OpenSSL::RSA. This module
- requires that the OpenSSL libraries and header files be installed.
-
- Crypt::OpenSSL::Bignum is currently under active development, and the
- many of the arithmetic APIs may change. However, the author is
- committed to greater stability of the following methods:
-
- new_from_bin, new_from_hex, new_from_decimal
- to_bin, to_hex, to_decimal
- pointer_copy, bless_pointer
-
- The module is being developed on sourceforge; if you find something
- you like or hate, please come to http://perl-openssl.sf.net/ for
- discussion and the latest in the cvs repository.
