On Visual Studio 2010, sometimes the MAC generation step fails, and I'm not sure why. Try running the custom build step again. Or you can just modify the source code and disable the MAC checking step, since it's only required for FIPS compliance and I don't think it adds much real security.

Hi folks, now I'm searching for a solution for my problem for days but I can't find anything. I managed to compile cryptopp 5.6 with Visual Studio 2010 with the help of the solution provided in this group. I try to dynamically link the library from my project. But everytime the library loads I get the message that the power-up self test failed. I believe that depends on an error I got when compiling the cryptopp 5.6. (cryptest.exe "Invalid allocation size: 4294967295 bytes.") It seems that the hash to test the library is not generated. When I step through the code while execution the expected hash is something like MAC_<some numbers> but the generated hash is something cryptical. I do not want to link cryptopp statically because all other libraries I use are linked dynamically and it causes problems to mix up the linking methods. Does anybody experience the same problems and have a solution or an idea? Frank -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "Crypto++ Users" Google Group.
