Subject: Crypt::GCrypt error on new method
I am attempting to use gcrypt using a Perl interface
I have "perl -MCPAN -e 'install Crypt::GCrypt'" and installed it successfully.
I attempted to run the code in Perldoc, but get this error
Can't locate object method "new" via package "GCrypt::Cipher" (perhaps you
forgot to load "GCrypt::Cipher"?) at gcrypt_testing.pl line 5.
Any ideas?
=====
use Crypt::GCrypt;
$cipher = GCrypt::Cipher->new(
type => 'cipher',
algorithm => 'aes',
mode => 'cbc'
);
$cipher->start('encrypting');
$cipher->setkey('my secret key');
$cipher->setiv('my init vector');
$ciphertext = $cipher->encrypt('plaintext');
$ciphertext .= $cipher->finish;
$plaintext = $cipher->decrypt($ciphertext);
======Thanks,John
=========================================
Shouldn't that be
$cipher = Crypt::GCrypt->new( ..... );
