I am trying to calculate an MD5 checksum in .Net 2.0 and then
compare it to the value I get from a MySQL query.
The MySQL query always returns a 32 character value where as .Net
2.0 seems to always return a 24 character value.
Is there any way to modify the .Net version to be compatible with
MySQL?
Here is my .Net code:
Dim md5 As MD5CryptoServiceProvider
Dim bytValue() As Byte
Dim bytHash() As Byte
' Create New Crypto Service Provider Object
md5 = New MD5CryptoServiceProvider
' Convert the original string to array of Bytes
bytValue = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(strInput)
' Compute the Hash, returns an array of Bytes
bytHash = md5.ComputeHash(bytValue)
md5.Clear()
' Return a base 64 encoded string of the Hash value
strOutput = Convert.ToBase64String(bytHash)
' MySQL returns 1bbd886460827015e5d605ed44252251
' .Net returns G72IZGCCcBXl1gXtRCUiUQ==
