.SH SYNOPSIS
.IX Header "SYNOPSIS"
.Vb 1
\& #include <openssl/evp.h>

\& const EVP_CIPHER *EVP_rc4(void);

.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The RC4 stream cipher for EVP.
.IP \fBEVP_rc4()\fR 4
.IX Item "EVP_rc4()"
RC4 stream cipher. This is a variable key length cipher with a default key
length of 128 bits.
.IP \fBEVP_rc4_40()\fR 4
.IX Item "EVP_rc4_40()"
RC4 stream cipher with 40 bit key length.
.Sp
WARNING: this function is obsolete. Its usage should be replaced with the
\&\fBEVP_rc4()\fR and the \fBEVP_CIPHER_CTX_set_key_length()\fR functions.
.IP \fBEVP_rc4_hmac_md5()\fR 4
.IX Item "EVP_rc4_hmac_md5()"
Authenticated encryption with the RC4 stream cipher with MD5 as HMAC.
.Sp
WARNING: this is not intended for usage outside of TLS and requires calling of
some undocumented ctrl functions. These ciphers do not conform to the EVP AEAD
interface.
.SH NOTES
.IX Header "NOTES"
Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of
calling these functions multiple times and should consider using
\&\fBEVP_CIPHER_fetch\fR\|(3) with \fBEVP_CIPHER\-RC4\fR\|(7) instead.
See "Performance" in \fBcrypto\fR\|(7) for further information.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
These functions return an \fBEVP_CIPHER\fR structure that contains the
implementation of the symmetric cipher. See \fBEVP_CIPHER_meth_new\fR\|(3) for
details of the \fBEVP_CIPHER\fR structure.
