Information about the package, qca2, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The qca2 package is designed for, Qt Cryptographic Architecture.
Package Name:
qca2
Summary:
Qt Cryptographic Architecture
Description:
Taking a hint from the similarly-named Java Cryptography Architecture, QCA aims to provide a straightforward and cross-platform crypto API, using Qt datatypes and conventions. QCA separates the API from the implementation, using plugins known as Providers. The advantage of this model is to allow applications to avoid linking to or explicitly depending on any particular cryptographic library. This allows one to easily change or upgrade crypto implementations without even needing to recompile the application!
