Hi,

That's rather a question for the Crypto++ team.

On a side note, are you tied to that old outdated version of Qt ? You currently have 4.8.7 and 5.6. Which are you choosing ?

@SGaist Actually i have done most my project code in this Qt version , if i changed the Qt version again i have to change whole code, so i am trying in Qt 4.8.7,
and is it possible to achieve aes encryption using openssl with Qt?

You can use OpenSSL without any problem.

Unless your using a deprecated API, the port from Qt 4 to 5 is pretty strait forward.

Depending on what you need, the QCA project might be of interest to you.
