Hi,

I am wondering if there is a good cryptography lib C/C++ that is
pretty much self contained and easy to build as a shared lib? It would
also need to be well documented on usage / APIs.

I started to look for Blowfish and came across "Twofish" but the
author provides source code (on his site) but it's lacking
documentation, etc. I am looking to make a crypto module for Ruby that
will be fast and efficient vs Ruby native Gems that exist.

Now that I've managed to get figure out how to call my C++ code from
Ruby, I think this will be my first contribution to the Open Source
community, and I am kind of excited about the idea.

I need help in tracking down a good crytpo library that's easy to
build for my 1st crack at this. Would GnuPGP fit this bill if anyone
has experience building a shared lib?
