It's not urgent for us, and it's rude for you to give a timeline to people doing your job for free.

At first I thought you meant a SQL DB, but I think you mean for encryption/decryption. There's no support for this in C++, you need to write or google for code that you can use.

Solution 2

Microsoft Crypto API[^]

Examples[^]

If you're going to be creating pkcs10's then you'll need to look at their Certificate Enrolment API[^]

If you're just using self-signeds then use CertCreateSelfSignCertificate[^]

My favorite crypto library is libTomCrypt[^]. It implements a lot of algorithms, has very nice clear source code that is good even for learning purposes, plus its crossplatform. Its licensing is also very nice: WTFPL[^].
Definitely check out his other math libraries too if you are interested!
