<p>The typical encryption process includes following steps:
</p>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><p> Prepare data for encryption.
</p></li>
<li><p> Create or load encryption template and select start
<enc:EncryptedData/> node.
</p></li>
<li><p> Create encryption context <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTX">xmlSecEncCtx</a>
using <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXCREATE">xmlSecEncCtxCreate</a> or
<a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXINITIALIZE">xmlSecEncCtxInitialize</a>
functions.
</p></li>
<li><p> Load encryption key in <a href="xmlsec-keysmngr.html#XMLSECKEYSMNGR">keys manager</a>
or generate a session key and set it in the encryption context
(<code class="STRUCTFIELD">encKey</code> member of
<a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTX">xmlSecEncCtx</a> structure).
</p></li>
<li>
<p> Encrypt data by calling one of the following functions:
</p>
<p></p>
<ul>
<li><p> <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXBINARYENCRYPT">xmlSecEncCtxBinaryEncrypt</a>
</p></li>
<li><p> <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXXMLENCRYPT">xmlSecEncCtxXmlEncrypt</a>
</p></li>
<li><p> <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXURIENCRYPT">xmlSecEncCtxUriEncrypt</a>
</p></li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><p> Check returned value and if necessary consume encrypted data.
</p></li>
<li><p> Destroy encryption context <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTX">xmlSecEncCtx</a>
using <a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXDESTROY">xmlSecEncCtxDestroy</a> or
<a href="xmlsec-xmlenc.html#XMLSECENCCTXFINALIZE">xmlSecEncCtxFinalize</a>
