Re: Encryption using perl core functions only

Of course you can use modules. There's no difference between code you write and code you take from CPAN as far as Perl is concerned. There are a number of pure-perl modules that implement strong 2-way encryption, like Crypt::Blowfish_PP.

I don't have strict.pm or warnings.pm on the embedded platform, but I could remove those pragmas from the module and inline it with my program. There are no dependencies for Crypt::Blowfish_PP too which is nice. Thanks for the pointer, most of the encryption modules I have looked at on CPAN have an XS component and I didn't want to attempt those on the embedded platform.	[reply]
