*	Conver the rest of the hash functions to use the array-based load instructions.	lloyd	2009-11-03	1	-3/+3
\| \| \| \| \| \| \|	I'm not totally happy with this - in particular in all cases the size is a compile time constant - it would be nice to make use of this via tempalate metaprogramming. Also for matching endian loads, a straight memcpy would do the work, which would probably be even faster.
*	Remove the 'realname' attribute on all modules and cc/cpu/os info files.	lloyd	2009-10-29	1	-2/+0
\| \| \| \| \|	Pretty much useless and unused, except for listing the module names in build.h and the short versions totally suffice for that.
*	Remove all exception specifications. The way these are designed in C++ is	lloyd	2009-10-22	2	-2/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \|	just too fragile and not that useful. Something like Java's checked exceptions might be nice, but simply killing the process entirely if an unexpected exception is thrown is not exactly useful for something trying to be robust.
*	Remove add blocks from hash function info.txt files	lloyd	2009-09-29	1	-8/+0

*	Thomas Moschny passed along a request from the Fedora packagers which came	lloyd	2009-03-30	3	-24/+30
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	up during the Fedora submission review, that each source file include some text about the license. One handy Perl script later and each file now has the line Distributed under the terms of the Botan license after the copyright notices. While I was in there modifying every file anyway, I also stripped out the remainder of the block comments (lots of astericks before and after the text); this is stylistic thing I picked up when I was first learning C++ but in retrospect it is not a good style as the structure makes it harder to modify comments (with the result that comments become fewer, shorter and are less likely to be updated, which are not good things).
*	I had not anticipated this being really worthwhile, but it turns out	lloyd	2008-11-23	2	-90/+94
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	to have been so! Change MDx_HashFunction::hash to a new compress_n which hashes an arbitrary number of blocks. I had a thought this might reduce a bit of loop overhead but the results were far better than I anticipated. Speedup across the board of about 2%, and very noticable (+10%) increases for MD4 and Tiger (probably b/c both of those have so few instructions in each iteration of the compression function). Before: SHA-1: amd64: 211.9 MiB/s core: 210.0 MiB/s sse2: 295.2 MiB/s MD4: 476.2 MiB/s MD5: 355.2 MiB/s SHA-256: 99.8 MiB/s SHA-512: 151.4 MiB/s RIPEMD-128: 326.9 MiB/s RIPEMD-160: 225.1 MiB/s Tiger: 214.8 MiB/s Whirlpool: 38.4 MiB/s After: SHA-1: amd64: 215.6 MiB/s core: 213.8 MiB/s sse2: 299.9 MiB/s MD4: 528.4 MiB/s MD5: 368.8 MiB/s SHA-256: 103.9 MiB/s SHA-512: 156.8 MiB/s RIPEMD-128: 334.8 MiB/s RIPEMD-160: 229.7 MiB/s Tiger: 240.7 MiB/s Whirlpool: 38.6 MiB/s
*	Rename all modinfo.txt files to info.txt, since they are all (none) of	lloyd	2008-09-29	1	-0/+0
\| \| \| \| \|	them modules now. In any case there is no distinction so info.txt seems better.
*	Make mdx_hash also a module, which most of the hash functions depend on.	lloyd	2008-09-28	1	-0/+4
\| \| \| \| \| \|	Correct the configure program so modules are not autoloaded if their dependences are not available. (Eg, --no-module=mdx_hash will disable MD4, MD5, SHA-1, etc rather than cause a compliation failure)
*	Move all modules into src/ directory	lloyd	2008-09-28	4	-0/+729
