As I understand it, CCM is mostly used in packet-based protocols (and in fact you have to know the length of the whole message to even start processing). So a complete transform mechanism without any incremental support isn't that bad; the expectation is that you'll pull small packets off the wire (or radio interface), and decrypt them sequentially and then (perhaps) reassemble them into a stream. -Jack ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
