Blowfish -more the 448 bits ? (General questions)

by dandraka, Friday, November 11, 2005, 11:32 (6951 days ago)

Hi,

We have seen a behaviour from the wodCrypt component which, even though it isn't a problem (at least for now) is a bit odd. Perhaps you can explain us:

When we set the component's encryption key, we give a 64-byte (512 bits) long string. It works, perfectly. And it decrypts too, no problem there.

BUT the Blowfish specification says the the maximum key length is 448 bits (56 bytes). Is there any truncation (or sth else) happening ?

WeOnlyDo!COM will be the first stop I make should I require any further off-the-shelf components.

Your component works really great. With minor effort I have been able to convert my delphi application...

...wodFtpDlx was exactly what I needed, it worked, and it was priced right...

Thank you very much for the rapid responses. I was a little nervous about dealing with a company that is on a different continent from me. You have proven my concerns to be unfounded.

May I say how nice it is to work with components so complete and self-explanatory that using them in my application is as instinctive as though I wrote them myself?

...with the SFTP interface you produced, everything was so simple to understand, we were able to start coding almost immediately!

...with a minimum of effort as the DLL interface was written with such simplicity...
