Barry | I'd like to see SQL hash functions in EDB.
The most reliable right now are SHA-2 or SHA-3. Even the older less reliable MD5 would be ok. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Hash_Algorithm MySQL has had them for quite some time. https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/encryption-functions.html Thanks, Barry |

Raul ![]() | Barry,
I assume you mean natively since you can add them today using External Modules: http://www.elevatesoft.com/manual?action=viewtopic&id=edb2sql&topic=External_Modules For MD5 there is a module available here by S.Forbes: http://www.elevatesoft.com/forums?action=view&category=edb&id=edb_extensions&page=1&msg=95#95 Raul On 1/4/2014 2:31 PM, Barry wrote: > I'd like to see SQL hash functions in EDB. > The most reliable right now are SHA-2 or SHA-3.

Tim would have comment on adding these natively. Just to clarify these are not really 3rd party but something you'd compile. External modules are very powerful way to extend the EDB and adding something like hash function is very straightforward. Raul |

It's too likely to become out-dated or need constant revisions for performance reasons, and is much more suited to being surfaced via external modules.
