Hello, I would like to know how we can trust this source concerning scrypt : http://code.dlang.org/packages/scrypt-d And second : will there be any official package in D ? The same goes for bcrypt and sha2 cryptographic algo. Thanks, Larry

Thanks, But, 1) By trusted, I meant : that one with good background used and thinks is good (i am not skilled enough to tell) -> no memory leaks, no big f*****g breach. Well if it is cryptographically strong or not. Again, I cannot judge of it. But thanks to remind people to read before asking. 2) I might have missed it but Openssl doesn't enable people to crypt passwords, it enables us to secure the communication layer, does it? Thanks, Larry

Thanks, LarryLooks to me like it's just a wrapper around a C library, so it's not really whether you can trust that source as it is whether you can trust the C library.

Thanks to you guys, i could grab my copy. i will use the D implementation. Many thanks, your help is very valuable. Larry
