How to create PBKDF2 key on iOS device

Question

I need to create a PBKDF2 key to use in my AES encryption routine in my iPhone Xcode application. I have seen references to using OpenSSL to do this, but not found specific

Answer 1

You can use the PKCS5_PBKDF2_HMAC_SHA1() function in openssl/evp.h. Divining how to use the function is pretty easy from the declaration:

int PKCS5_PBKDF2_HMAC_SHA1(const char *pass, int passlen,
               const unsigned char *salt, int saltlen, int iter,
               int keylen, unsigned char *out);

Answer 2

I think p5_crpt2.c is what you are looking for.
