LabVIEW md5 algorithm

[altenbach]

Has anyone implemented MD5 natively in LabVIEW yet?

(see e.g. RFC1321).

As a related subject, I developed the SHA-1 completely in LabVIEW. It is part of my cryptography library Crypto-G. Check it at:

I have written a LabVIEW-based MD5. I need to test and clean the VIs up a bit more. I hope to post it in the next week, at which point I'll post another message on this thread.

[altenbach]

Thanks. SHA-1 is a quite similar algorithm to md5, so it should not be difficult to adapt.

Looks like a useful toolkit.

[altenbach]

Thanks. Let me know when it's ready.

I've submitted the VIs to Developer Zone and they are currently undergoing a routine internal review before they become "live" (I'm an NI employee). Hopefully it will be in the next couple of days. You might want to search on "MD5" in Dev Zone over the next week or so as I may be out of the office when they become live.

I have an immediate need for the Labview MD5 VIs. I've been searching in NI Developer Zone daily for "MD5" and haven't seen anything yet. Do I need use different search keyword(s)? Is there a way I could get these VIs directly? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[Steven_H.]

The VIs are now live, but they have not been indexed by the search engine as of this morning. However, you can access them by going to ni.com/zone > New Content. Under "NI Example Code", the title is "MD5 Message-Digest Calculator".

I found it and "MD5 string.vi" appears to work perfectly. Thanks!

[altenbach]

Just got it. Beautiful code and very nicely done!
Thanks.
