After you write your Toolkit program, compile it like this:

  cc `WizardsToolkit-config --cflags --cppflags` -o wizard wizard.c `WizardsToolkit-config --ldflags --libs`

Here is a example program that utilizes the Wizard's Toolkit API to get you started, wizard.c. It simply computes and prints the Secure Hash Algorithm 512-bit digest of a string.

  #include <stdio.h>
  #include <wizard/WizardsToolkit.h>
  
  int main(int argc,char **argv)
  {
    HashInfo
      *hash_info;
  
    StringInfo
      *content;
  
    WizardsToolkitGenesis(*argv);
    hash_info=AcquireHashInfo(SHA512Hash);
    InitializeHash(hash_info);
    content=StringToStringInfo("The Wizard's Toolkit");
    UpdateHash(hash_info,content);
    FinalizeHash(hash_info);
    PrintStringInfo("Content",content);
    PrintStringInfo("Digest",GetHashDigest(hash_info));
    DestroyHashInfo(hash_info);
    DestroyStringInfo(content);
    WizardsToolkitTerminus();
    return(0);
  }
