Re: Crypt_HMAC???

Hi, Jesus M. Castagnetto wrote:

I was looking at the list of packages, and notice PEAR::Crypt_HMAC, which is relatively new and performs a subset of what PEAR::Message does (an older package). I might have missed the discussion when that package was submitted for consideration. BTW, PEAR::Message uses mhash if present, otherwise it falls back to a PHP implemented HMAC for MD5 and SHA1. It would be better to merge any modification (if any) that Derick has into Message or a similar approach. But I am OK w/ having redundant classes if that is the consensus.

maybe he didn't noticed, that such package exists, I also didn't noticed this (I searched something like this when I started up with my Crypt_CHAP package), because IMO the package name doesen't reflect what the package does, maybe Crypt_Digest would be better, but changing this afterwards can be a problem, bye, -- ------------------------------- ------------------------------------- Michael Bretterklieber - Michael.Bretterklieber@jawa.at JAWA Management Software GmbH - http://www.jawa.at Liebenauer Hauptstr. 200 -------------- privat --------------- A-8041 GRAZ GSM: ++43-(0)676-93 96 698 Tel: ++43-(0)316-403274-12 E-mail: michael@bretterklieber.com Fax: ++43-(0)316-403274-10 http://www.bretterklieber.com ------------------------------- ------------------------------------- "...the number of UNIX installations has grown to 10, with more expected..." - Dennis Ritchie and Ken Thompson, June 1972
