NAME

       gnutls_cipher_decrypt - API function


SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/crypto.h>

       gnutls_cipher_decrypt(3)  handle,  void  *  ctext,
       size_t ctext_len);


ARGUMENTS

       gnutls_cipher_hd_t handle
                   is a gnutls_cipher_hd_t type

       void * ctext
                   the data to decrypt

       size_t ctext_len
                   the length of data to decrypt


DESCRIPTION

       This function will decrypt the given data using the algorithm specified
       by the context.

       Note  that  in AEAD ciphers, this will not check the tag. You will need
       to   compare   the   tag   sent   with   the   value   returned    from
       gnutls_cipher_tag().
