Function silc_hmac_alloc

SYNOPSIS


    SilcBool silc_hmac_alloc(const char *name, SilcHash hash,
                         SilcHmac *new_hmac);

DESCRIPTION


    Allocates a new SilcHmac object of name of `name'.  The `hash' may
    be provided as argument.  If provided it is used as the hash function
    of the HMAC.  If it is NULL then the hash function is allocated and
    the name of the hash algorithm is derived from the `name'.  Returns
    FALSE if such HMAC does not exist.
