-This is the beginning of an attempt to SWIG-ify Botan so it can be accessed by
-other languages. You should use the latest SWIG 1.3 release (I am currently
-using SWIG 1.3.19). Currently I am only testing this code with Python 2.2.1,
-since that is the language I am mainly interested in at this point. Feel free
-to send me patches so this is usable with Perl or whatever.
-
-I'm not attempting to make everything in Botan usable from a script -
-basically, I just want the parts that *I* want to use. Most things are not
-supported yet, and there are lots of bugs in the stuff that does exist. If
-there is something in particular that you would like to be able to use from a
-script, let me know (patches are good, too).
-
-Todo:
- * Why does it seg fault if we don't create a LibraryInitializer. It should
- throw an exception, like it does in C++. Maybe have it init Botan when the
- module is loaded? That seems a lot cleaner/nicer, but I don't know how to
- do it yet.
- * Lots of problems with exceptions
- * Use constraints to prevent bad args when possible
- * Pipe/Filter
- - Better argument processing for all filters
- - Support for ciphers, MACs, etc
- - Chain + Fork
- - Support for append/prepend/pop/reset in Pipe?
- * Public Key Crypto
- - RSA
- - DSA
- - DH
- - Generic X.509 and PKCS #8 stuff
- * PKI
- - X.509 certs + CRLs
- - PKCS #10 requests
- - X.509 stores
- - X.509 CA
