Encrypting passwords (hash, digest, etc.)

0 replies · 2,018 views · Started 05 March 2003

I'm trying to write a Symbian (C++) implementation for an existing authentication mechanism that's used on several other platforms. It uses the very common SHA hashing or digest() methods for encrypting a password combined with a token. Are these encrypting methods supported in Symbian? (especially for the 7650, Symbian v6.0)
Hope anybody can help...
