NAME

       EVP_rc2_cbc, EVP_rc2_cfb, EVP_rc2_cfb64, EVP_rc2_ecb, EVP_rc2_ofb, EVP_rc2_40_cbc,
       EVP_rc2_64_cbc - EVP RC2 cipher

SYNOPSIS

        #include <openssl/evp.h>

        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cbc(void);
        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cfb(void);
        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_cfb64(void);
        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_ecb(void);
        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_ofb(void);
        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_40_cbc(void);
        const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc2_64_cbc(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The RC2 encryption algorithm for EVP.

       EVP_rc2_cbc(), EVP_rc2_cfb(), EVP_rc2_cfb64(), EVP_rc2_ecb(), EVP_rc2_ofb()
           RC2 encryption algorithm in CBC, CFB, ECB and OFB modes respectively. This is a
           variable key length cipher with an additional parameter called "effective key bits" or
           "effective key length". By default both are set to 128 bits.

       EVP_rc2_40_cbc(), EVP_rc2_64_cbc()
           RC2 algorithm in CBC mode with a default key length and effective key length of 40 and
           64 bits.

           WARNING: these functions are obsolete. Their usage should be replaced with the
           EVP_rc2_cbc(), EVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length() and EVP_CIPHER_CTX_ctrl() functions to
           set the key length and effective key length.

NOTES

       Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of calling these
       functions multiple times and should consider using EVP_CIPHER_fetch(3) with
       EVP_CIPHER-RC2(7) instead.  See "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information.

RETURN VALUES

       These functions return an EVP_CIPHER structure that contains the implementation of the
       symmetric cipher. See EVP_CIPHER_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_CIPHER structure.
