Good morning,
I am using VC 7.1.8 to calculate a SHA256 checksum for a series of files, and write them to a file prior to uploading to a remote site. The txt file containing the checksum values will be used to validate the receipt of files prior to acting on them.
What I am seeing is that the checksum value being calculated by VC is not correct. I have run the function in VC, on a Windows system using sha256sum.exe, and using Mac OSX built in function.
The values are below (VCR = VisualCron 7.1.8, WIN = Windows, OSX = Mac OSX)
VCR: E6BED9BE49BD8F2FB493522F2D01471BC5E6DF2ED902C742C62E5BA89C7DDE
WIN: E6BED9BE49BD8F2FB4930522F2D01471BC5E6DF2ED902C742C62E50BA89C7DDE
OSX: E6BED9BE49BD8F2FB4930522F2D01471BC5E6DF2ED902C742C62E50BA89C7DDE
VCR: B1DA9AEC9A68EC853968AA0F7631C93BC728B48DBA1E7191CCC177C431AFEC
WIN: B1DA9AEC09A68EC853968AA0F7631C93BC7208B48DBA1E7191CCC177C431AFEC
OSX: B1DA9AEC09A68EC853968AA0F7631C93BC7208B48DBA1E7191CCC177C431AFEC
VCR: 4DC6ABE28FCC244E74F52D545AE1965FB77F5445609CE5902C4ED68D5DA7
WIN: 4DC6ABE28FCC244E740F52D545AE1965FB770F5445609CE5902C04ED068D5DA7
OSX: 4DC6ABE28FCC244E740F52D545AE1965FB770F5445609CE5902C04ED068D5DA7
In all cases the returned values are missing zeros (0).
Can you look into this and let me know your thoughts? I can provide the files (offline) used in this test and the configuration as required.
Thanks
