HCVault.Native

NuGet package with the prebuilt native libraries of hcvault-core — a portable build of the VeraCrypt volume core behind a small C API (vcapi.h): create, open and modify VeraCrypt containers, normal and hidden volumes, all cipher/KDF combinations, keyfiles, PIM, header re-encryption, exFAT via the bundled FatFs (ChaN R0.15).

The package follows the standard NuGet runtimes/ layout:

Runtime Library
win-x64, win-x86, win-arm64 hcvault-core.dll
linux-x64 libhcvault-core.so
android-arm64, android-arm, android-x86, android-x64 libhcvault-core.so (API 21+, 16 KB-page aligned)

Usage

Reference HCVault.Core (the managed wrapper) and build your application with a RuntimeIdentifier — HCVault.Core depends on this package, so the matching library is pulled in automatically, copied to your output (or packaged into the APK lib/<abi>/ on Android) and found by the wrapper's loader. Reference this package explicitly only to force a different version.

Building without a RuntimeIdentifier copies no native library; either set one (-r linux-x64 …), place the library next to the application manually, or point the VCNATIVE_HOME environment variable at it.

Need a platform not listed above (macOS, other architectures)? Build the core from the repository sources instead: it is a plain CMake project (cmake -S native -B build && cmake --build build), and HCVault.Core picks up manually placed libraries through the same probing rules.

HCVault.Core

Managed wrapper around the VeraCrypt volume core: create, open, read and write VeraCrypt encrypted containers (normal and hidden volumes, all cipher/KDF combinations, keyfiles, PIM) without mounting them. Pulls in the matching HCVault.Native package (prebuilt native libraries for Windows, Linux and Android) automatically; build your own from the repository sources with CMake if you need another platform.

1.6.0: the exFAT bridge accepts an empty path as the volume root; otherwise no native changes - version-aligned with HCVault.Core 1.6.0 (keyfile streams, folder import/export, automatic HCVault.Native dependency). Volumes are compatible with 1.4.x/1.5.x (same vcapi v4).
