3DES encryption how to

2008-04-02 Thread vaibhav bindroo 
Hi all ,
I am a newbie to OpenSSL . I have written a client and server program using
OpenSSL that works properly doin certificate verification , authentication
etal .
Now i want to encrypt my data on the client side using 3DES algorithm ...i m
confused which is the way to go ..using ciphers EVP apis like
EVP_des_ede3_cbc()  or built in custom functions like
DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt()

Please guide me on this ..

Use EVP with EVP_des_ede3_cbc() - high level API.
DES_ede3_cbc_encrypt() is low level API
