- This library is a simple wrapper providing a convenient reentrant interface for
- the bcrypt password hashing algorithm implementation as provided by Solar
- Designer at http://www.openwall.com/crypt/. An exact copy of that source code
- is included in the crypt_blowfish subdirectory.
- The provided C interface is inspired in the bcrypt Python module that can be
- found at http://code.google.com/p/py-bcrypt/, and consists of a function to
- generate salts with the characteristic work factor parameter, one to generate
- password hashes which can also used to verify passwords and one designed
- specifically to verify passwords and avoid timing attacks. Please check the
- header bcrypt.h. It contains the prototypes and lots of comments with examples.
- All this code is released to the public domain under the terms of CC0. See the
- COPYING file for the legal text.
