Re^2: Would Like Recommendation for an SHA256 module

I don't think I can use Digest::SHA, since this is hosted on a 3rd party hosting service, and I wouldn't be able to recompile it. But, you're right, Digest::SHA would be better if I can use it, and if Mark Shelor's program turns out to be the module of choice.

Thanks for the tip about the link! I was being lazy and going on memory for what to use, I should have looked it up.

If you can't compile the module, then that only leaves you with (the slow) Digest::SHA::PurePerl. The three others are all written in C.	[reply]

Practically speaking, it shouldn't matter, there will be less than a dozen users of this script. My main concern is the quality of the module I pick (does it implement the algorithm properly). TheEnigma	[reply]
