nobody has tried to accomplish this?

I would like to achieve this in order to have the possibility of obtaining unique keys for a possible system of protection. I attach a document of the algorithm SECURE HASH STANDARD

If your looking for security don't use SHA1. You should look at SHA2 or other encryption algorithms that don't have known vulnerabilities.

Or make educational philosophy (see Reaper for example) and valuable services around your product - for your registered customers only. Software can be cracked and probably will be - either for use or just for fun. Folks who are really interested in your product - will come to you in order to have additional support - something that can't be just "cracked" so to speak. Anyway I would go in that direction. Optionally I would make some demo app for internet, and full version sent digitally after payment (thus you have buyer details plus IP tracking - an information that you can use for marketing vs security if needed). It's just a suggestion.

I agree with your thinking. 😉 But I'm trying to achieve this because I wanted to use the WebSocket in HTML5, it consists of a handshake with SHA1 and BASE64. The base64 module, I have already done in the past and now I try with SHA1.

I see. Unfortunately I can't help here; it's beyond me.

Before your first post

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
