getHashFromFile doesn't work for large files

xues — Wed, 13 Mar 2013 22:25:33 -0000

The code only reads the first 1024 bytes and hashes that. Had issue with 2 different files about 9KB in size which had the same 1024 header. Fix is attached. Hash now matches apps HxD, HashMyFiles, and lib in C#.

getHashFromFile does not actually read file

Anonymous — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 16:41:23 -0000

Used library version: hashlibpp_0_3_2
The getHashFromFile method does not work correctly under msvc due to known problem with std::istream::readsome function.

Conflicting Declaration with OpenSSL

It seems that openssl also typedef SHA256_CTX and SHA512_CTX

OpenSSL 0.9.8k: sha.h > line 138, 184
HashLib++ 0.3.1: hl_sha256.h > line 124, 116

Doesn't produce the correct md5

hashwrapper* hashWrapper1=new md5wrapper();
char test[100];
strcpy(test,"af3634ec4407c3e6d8bfad850eb0a13486f94a30cd842b876ce9e5e31ce0d7ad40862915552c9eb078a");
string hashtest=hashWrapper1->getHashFromString(test);

MD5 should be: dc79675502b83034f721fcb60a963c74

It produces: a8a47bb9964e850a70f5d28fc17f9ea7

syntax error: unexpected end of file

Anonymous — Sat, 10 Nov 2007 07:48:24 -0000

on make install i received this error.

cp libhl++.a /usr/lib/ &&
/bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
make: *** [install] Error 2

It was easily fixed by adding a \ to the end of "cp libhl++.a /usr/lib/ && ".
