Hi Greg
>> Did the Delphi authors do that?!
Sorry no idea. The controls were purchased from a European site because
I could not get anything out of the States. The company, no longer
exists so I am glad I purchased source code or I would be screwed. I
tried to purchase TurboPower's LockBox but they would not supply it due
to an export moratorium on cryptographic cipher technology. This has
been relaxed for some time now but I am stuck with the legacy of went
before.
The code I purchased has been in use for many years and has been very
reliable (except for a memory leak that I managed to fix). I do not feel
competent to recode it. The idea of writing a COM object to encapsulate
the Delphi code seems like the optimal solution. I am not that well
versed in COM so I have some study to do. At least I have texts on the
subject. I thought that with .NET, COM was deprecated (even if COM+ is
not). Oh well.
I will give the Delphi to C# converter suggested by Ian, a go as well.
My fall back is to use the framework's cryptographic support (RSA not
elliptic curve) but that would mean two parallel delivery streams, the
old and the new that are not compatible with each other.
