What is this?
This software is the SHA-1 software that passed NIST validation on
September 20th. http://www.cc.utah.edu/~nahaj/ada/sha probably
has more inforation. This NIST validation is documented at:
http://csrc.ncsl.nist.gov/cryptval/
The standard for SHA-1 is documented at:
http://www.itl.nist.gov/fipspubs/fip180-1.htm
This code implements the FULL standard, and can hash bytes or
arbitrary bits, or any combination thereof.
This code includes all the test routines, and even the driver
programs that processed the files for the NIST tests.
What does it assume:
It assumes that your venders Interfaces library has Unsigned_32.
The test routines also assume that Interfaces includes Unsigned_8
What use can I make of this? (LICENCE RESTRICTIONS)
You may use this code in your projects (commercial or otherwise)
subject to the understanding that you give appropriate credit
to me in the documentation. And that you understand that there
is no warrenty, implied or otherwise, on this software.
An example appropriate credit is:
This product uses code for SHA-1 written by John Halleck,
which is being used by his permission.
Comments:
If you do use it, I'd appreciate hearing what use it is being
put to.
If you have feedback, I'd be interested in hearing about it.
