Does anyone have source code for IDEA encryption???
The simpler the format the better ... i have already various .DLL files and .LIB files but this is just a bit too complex for me. A C++ file or 2 and header files is really what i'm after.
Nothing I have is complete and i don't have the knowledge to finish the job myself.
As i understand, it's illegal to import into the US but here in Europe it's public domain.
Any help would be appreciated ASAP.
Thnx
 
Thanks for the info.. i have since found a book by Bruce Schneier..(don't remember the title) detailing encryption algorithms including IDEA.
It also provides full source code.
As far as i know the key isn't limited to a certain size as it is in the version i downloaded from the site you specified.

Many thanks.
 
I know only one book by this guy,
"Applied Cryptography", I have this book, but it would be a bit difficult to explain you the algo. Best Regards,

that's ok.. the book is enough.. i there are a few small bugs in the code.. nothing major.. the compiler picks them up easily enough.
thanks for the help.
