This file contains information on how to build and use the BeeCrypt DLL on
|
||
|
|
Win32 platforms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The platform of preference is currently MicroSoft Visual C++ 6.0, but
|
||
|
|
Metrowerks CodeWarrior is also still supported.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To be able to use the assembler files with Visual C++, you need to have the
|
||
|
|
Visual C++ 6.0 Processor Pack installed. It can be found at:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/downloads/ppack/default.asp
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To be able to use the assembler files with Metrowerks CodeWarrior, you will
|
||
|
|
need to install an unsupported (but working for the included files) assembler
|
||
|
|
plug-in, which can be found on the CodeWarrior download page.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build the java glue into the DLL, you should also have Sun's JDK 1.3,
|
||
|
|
including the JNI headers, installed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Make sure all Visual C++ tools can be found on the path, i.e.:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cl.exe (the compiler)
|
||
|
|
ml.exe (the assembler)
|
||
|
|
link.exe (the linker)
|
||
|
|
nmake.exe (the make utility)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For convenience, copy file 'Makefile.mak' to 'Makefile' and adjust paths as
|
||
|
|
required. The Makefile assumes you will be building in support for java.
|
||
|
|
If this is not the case, you will have to adjust the Makefile, which shouldn't
|
||
|
|
be too difficult.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Next, run 'nmake' and the library and the test program will be built.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once running, you can use any of three entropy source available on this
|
||
|
|
platform, in order of preference:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wavein (uses noise on the soundcard microphone port)
|
||
|
|
console (uses keyboard clicks with a high resolution timer)
|
||
|
|
wincrypt (uses random data generated by the Windows CryptAPI)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To enable a specific entropy device, set variable BEECRYPT_ENTROPY to any of
|
||
|
|
these three values; if not specified, the library will use 'wavein' as default.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In the future, additional sources of entropy on this platform will be made available.
