[TurboMagic 91]

Good news: DEC V6.4.1 jsut got released.

https://github.com/MHumm/DelphiEncryptionCompendium/releases/tag/V6.4.1

 

What is this?

DEC, also known as Delphi Encryption Compendium is a cryptography library for Delphi and FPC.

 

What's new in V6.4.1?

This is mainly a bugfix release with these topics:

• fixed some regression which produced wrong output at least for the 2DES encryption algorithm when used with CBC block chaining kode
• improved layout and handling of GCM block chaining mode in Cipher_FMX demo application
• added a new Cipher_Console_KDF demo application
• fixed and improved the documentation, especially about wrongly written GCM properties

 

What's the plan for the future?

1. Have a short rest 😉
2. Require Delphi 10.1 Berlin instead of D2009 as minimum compatible version
3. The rest of the plan (which exists) will not be disclosed yet.

I just noticed, that I hadn't completed the release publication back then due to too much going on short before Christmas.

This has been "fixed" now. The direct link to the release is here:

And work on a V6.5 already started. Contributors are welcome.
