Sorry to reply to my own post, but I just noticed that someone had posted a question as an edit to the code in the pastebin, and I wanted to redirect the follow-up discussion here, since most of us won't notice things added to the pastebin unless they're called out on this list :-) A user with the handle Dio asked: 20 + @What is SecByteBlock means?@ 21 + @SecByteBlock outbuf(sha.DigestSize());@ SecByteBlock is defined in the cryptopp header secblock.h. Read there for full details of what it's good for. Here, I'm just using it as a convenient smart pointer to a byte array. Others may want to correct me, but offhand I'd say that every occasion I can think of where I'd want to use a byte array with a crypto++ interface, it's safer/more convenient to use a SecByteBlock.
