Problem with Miracl Library (Shamus Softwares)

[kkwoei88]

Hi there. I'm new in C++ and I just found out the MIRACL library to perform cryptography.
I tried compile the sample code in Visual C++ , in which the code is included inside the library folder (http://www.shamus.ie/index.php?page=Downloads). It end up with some errors. I had add the miracl.lib and the header file big.h, miracl.h, mirdef.h, zzn.h inside the project too. Am I missing out some library which should be included? Or is there anyway to solve this?

Pelles C does not support C++ at all, it is only supporting plain ANSI C.

You would better ask at a C++ or Visual Studio forum.

Hi,

I m writing some crypto functions using Miracl library.
My problem is about arrays. I want to let user input the
size of the array (type:big). How can I do that?

Lookup scanf() and malloc() in your help file....
