[Gambas-user] CryptoExample & gCrypto

Sounds great.  I am sure a lot of people appreciate the effort you are
making!

I would have thought though, that any string encoded using Blowfish could be
decrypted on any platform supporting blowfish?  Much in the same way that I
can encrypt a message on Windows using PGP and GPG on Suse can decrypt it.

So, dare I say it, if they are not compatible (your version and Leo's) there
may be a bug somewhere.  The bigger problem might be tracing it!

Hey Daniel:

Leo had the code written in for that in his implementation of blowfish.  
I haven't implemented it in gCrypto yet, due lack of time.  That will be 
coming in the next release.  It should work on purdy much any machine 
that has Gambas on it...  so If you're stuck using another version of 
linux, feel free to try it out and let me know... ;-)

Also, I have done some testing...  I am not sure whose implementation of 
blowfish that Leo ported from [I found several versions for VB]...  But 
the VB code that I have, and the Gambas code that Leo wrote DO NOT 
operate together...  From the looks of it, they are two totally separate 
monsters.

How can you test if it is the blowfish encryption??  I have no clue....  
Ha ha ha.  I have the encryptions separated into their own classes, so 
they do not interfere with one another, if that is what you mean.  Check 
out the CryptoExample... It reveals all... well... almost all.

Let me know when you have time to check it!

Thanks!
