Hello there, i'm new to fingerprints systems, i'm developing an
authentication system and i would like to add fingerprint authentication
using libfprint, but all data would be stored on a database, my
authentication system would be distributed among some terminals, and
connectivity to the central database probably wont be the best and fastest.
So, if possible, I would like to convert fingerprint to a database storable
string which could be compared for identification and verification.
I saw on the API that exists fp_print_data_get_data which can convert a
struct fp_print_data into an array of chars representation, i didnt tested
(because of some impossibilities libfprint yet, are these string
representations suitable for database storage? and for identification
through a database system query like" "select * from user where
fingerprint='some-fingerprint-data'"? what size can that string reach ?
Sorry by bothering with these kind of questions, if someone could help me i
would apreciate it very much! :-)

my best regards,

José Trancas
