It runs on a wide variety of systems, and can be -used with most modern C++ compilers. - -It is released under the 2 clause BSD license and can be used by -commercial and open source software; see :ref:`license` for the -specifics. - -The base library is written in ISO C++, so it can be ported with -minimal fuss, but a modules system is also used. This system exposes -system dependent code to the library through portable interfaces, -extending the set of services available to users. +Botan is a BSD-licensed crypto library for C++. It provides +applications with the ability to use a number of cryptographic +algorithms, as well as SSL/TLS, X.509 certificates and CRLs, PKCS #10 +certificate requests, a filter/pipe message processing system, and a +wide variety of other features. A third party open source +implementation of `SSHv2 <http://www.netsieben.com/products/ssh/>`_ +that uses botan is also available. + +The core of botan is written in C++98 with no dependencies besides the +STL and the rest of the ISO standard library, but the library also +includes optional modules which make further assumptions about their +environment, providing features such as compression (using zlib or +bzip2), entropy gathering, and secure memory allocation. Assembly +implementations of key algorithms like SHA-1 and multiple precision +integer routines for x86 and x86-64 processors are also included. + +It runs on most common operating systems and can be used with a number +of different commercial and open source compilers. It is already +included in most major Linux and BSD distros, as well as in Cygwin and +MacPorts. The :ref:`build log <build_log>` contains information about +recently tested targets. The primary system targets are 32 and 64 bit CPUs, with a flat memory address space of at least 32 bits. Given the choice between optimizing for 32 bit systems and 64 bit systems, 64 bit is preferred, on the general theory that where performance is a real concern, modern 64 bit processors are the obvious choice. Smaller devices like handhelds, -settop boxes, and smart phones are also capable of using Botan. +settop boxes, and smart phones may also be capable. + +It was started as a personal project by `Jack Lloyd +<http:://www.randombit.net>`_, who continues to be the maintainer and +release manager. Since the first release in 2001, many individuals and +organizations have contributed bug fixes and new features. There have +been over 140 releases in the decade since the first publicly released +version; the :ref:`release notes <relnotes>` and news archive have +more information about the release history. + +In addition to C++ you can use botan from Python or Perl, though the +current bindings only wrap portions of the library. + +See the :ref:`faq` for a list of common questions and answers. + +If you need help or have questions, send a mail to the `development +mailing list +<http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/botan-devel/>`_. +"Philosophical" bug reports, announcements of programs using the +library, and related topics are also welcome. + +If you find what you believe to be a bug, please file a ticket in +`Bugzilla <http://bugs.randombit.net/>`_. -The design makes it quite easy to remove unused algorithms in such a -way that applications do not need to be recompiled to work, even -applications that use the algorithm in question.
