Hi all, Working on permissions and password protection for Quartam PDF Library, and I have a need for RC4 encryption at 40 bits. Actually, I do have a working plain LiveCode implementation by now, but the 'encrypt' command can do it too and is much faster.
Here's the rub: I read in the release notes for the mobile versions that "industrial strength encryption" is not supported. So here's a few questions for the iOS/Android developers on the list: - does a script with 'the cipherNames' or 'encrypt' in it still work, or does it fail to compile? - does 'the cipherNames' return empty or does it generate an error? - does the 'encrypt' command return an error in 'the result' or does it generate an error? An example of a simple test script: ## on mouseUp put "plain text" into tData put "dakey" into tKey -- 40 bits = 5 bytes if "rc4-40,40" is among the lines of the cipherNames then encrypt tData using "rc4-40" with key tKey if the result is not empty then answer error the result else answer information "RC4-40 returned:" && it end if else answer information "RC4-40 not available" end if end mouseUp ## Thanks in advance for the feedback!
