RSACryptoServiceProvider in 4GL
Tue, 2010-09-21 21:25 — portelinhaHi everyone
I am in need of sending a signed hash to a server that is programmed in Progress 10.2A 4GL.
I have searched and have come to this in C#:
SHA1Managed sha = new SHA1Managed();
....
RSACryptoServiceProvider rsa = new RSACryptoServiceProvider();
byte[] SignedHashValue = rsa.SignData(digest, sha);
Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToBase64String(SignedHashValue));
I need help in converting C# to Progress,
Can anyone help me?
Thank
