.SH NAME
gnutls_cipher_encrypt2 \- API function
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B #include <gnutls/crypto.h>
.sp
.BI "int gnutls_cipher_encrypt2(gnutls_cipher_hd_t " handle ", const void * " ptext ", size_t " ptext_len ", void * " ctext ", size_t " ctext_len ");"
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP "gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle" 12
is a \fBgnutls_cipher_hd_t\fP type
.IP "const void * ptext" 12
the data to encrypt
.IP "size_t ptext_len" 12
the length of data to encrypt
.IP "void * ctext" 12
the encrypted data
.IP "size_t ctext_len" 12
the available length for encrypted data
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
This function will encrypt the given data using the algorithm
specified by the context. For block ciphers the  \fIptext_len\fP must be
a multiple of the block size. For the supported ciphers the encrypted
data length will equal the plaintext size.
.SH "RETURNS"
Zero or a negative error code on error.
.SH "SINCE"
2.12.0
