Paul +1 - o The EVP and ASN1 stuff is a mess. Currently you have one EVP_CIPHER - structure for each cipher. This may make sense for things like DES but - for variable length ciphers like RC2 and RC4 it is NBG. Need a way to - use the EVP interface and set up the cipher parameters. The ASN1 stuff - is also foo wrt ciphers whose AlgorithmIdentifier has more than just - an IV in it (e.g. RC2, RC5).
