<p>XML Security Library can support practicaly any cryptographic
library. Currently, it has "out-of-the-box" support for OpenSSL,
MSCrypto, NSS, GnuTLS and GCrypt. If your favorite library is not supported yet then
you can write necessary code yourself. If you and your company
(university, ...) are willing to share the results of your work I would
be happy to add support for new libraries to the main XML Security
Library distribution.</p>
<p>
The XML Security Library
<a class="link" href="xmlsec-notes-structure.html" title="XML Security Library Structure.">separates</a>
the cryptographic library (engine)
specific code in an "xmlsec-<crypto>" library (where "<crypto>" is
"openssl", "mscrypt", "gnutls", "gcrypt", "nss", etc.) which includes following items:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
xmlSecCryptoApp* functions.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Cryptographic transforms and keys data implementation.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Keys store support (X509, PGP, etc.).
</p></li>
</ul></div>
<p>
In this chapter, we will discuss
a task of creating "xmlsec-mycrypto" library that provides support
for your favorite "MyCrypto" cryptographic library.
