Hello everyone, Anthony approached me some weeks ago and asked if it is possible to make use of built-in Windows functions in order to provide the hashing functionality required by Metalink.
Yes, it is entirely possible with the built-in CryptoAPI and I just finished a working implementation. I tested it on Windows 7 against libmetalink 0.1.2. Attached you will find the implementation itself and some changes I had to make to the MinGW makefile in order to be actually able to built curl against the latest libmetalink. Please take a look at the patches. I would appreciate any feedback on this. Testing is needed to make sure it also works on Windows XP and older. Thanks in advance! Best regards, Marc
