VeraCrypt SDK 1.26.24

This is the initial release of the VeraCrypt SDK, version 1.26.24, aligned with the current VeraCrypt application version.

This SDK provides a C-style DLL interface for programmatically creating VeraCrypt encrypted file containers and formatting non-system partitions. It is designed for developers looking to integrate VeraCrypt's robust encryption capabilities into their Windows applications.

Key Features:

• VeraCrypt Format SDK:
  • Create VeraCrypt encrypted file containers with customizable parameters.
  • Format non-system partitions with VeraCrypt encryption.

  • Support for multiple hash algorithms (SHA-512, SHA-256, RIPEMD-160, Whirlpool, BLAKE2s-256).
  • Choice of filesystems (NTFS, FAT, ExFAT, ReFS, or None).
  • Authentication via password and/or keyfiles.
  • Support for Personal Iterations Multiplier (PIM).
  • Options for quick format, dynamic (sparse) containers, and fast file creation.
  • Progress callback mechanism for monitoring format operations.
• Cross-Architecture Support: Pre-compiled binaries and libraries for Windows x64 and ARM64.
• Thread-Safe: Designed for safe use in multi-threaded applications.
• Sample Tool: Includes VeraCryptFormatTool.cpp and a CMake build system to demonstrate SDK usage.

Included in this release:

• VeraCryptFormat.dll (for x64 and ARM64)
• VeraCryptFormat.lib (for x64 and ARM64)
• VeraCryptFormatSDK.h (C header file)
• VeraCryptFormatTool.cpp (Sample command-line tool)
• CMakeLists.txt (CMake build file for the sample tool)
