Rick Hillegas commented on DERBY-6973: -------------------------------------- Fortunately, Ant is much more capable than it was when we originally wrote Derby's release targets. Ant now supports a <checksum> task. So we don't have to invoke a platform-specific executable like md5 any more. The following target shows how to compute a SHA-512 checksum on release distributions: {noformat} <target name="checksum-one-file"> <checksum file="${fileName}" todir="${targetDirectory}" fileext=".sha-512" algorithm="SHA-512" /> </target> {noformat} > Provide SHA-512 checksums on future releases > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-6973 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-6973 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Web Site > Affects Versions: 10.0.2.0, 10.0.2.1, 10.1.1.0, 10.1.2.1, 10.1.3.1, > 10.2.1.6, 10.2.2.0, 10.3.1.4, 10.3.2.1, 10.3.3.0, 10.4.1.3, 10.4.2.0, > 10.5.1.1, 10.5.2.0, 10.5.3.0, 10.6.1.0, 10.6.2.1, 10.7.1.1, 10.8.1.2, > 10.8.2.2, 10.8.3.0, 10.9.1.0, 10.10.1.1, 10.10.2.0, 10.11.1.1, 10.12.1.1, > 10.13.1.1, 10.14.1.0, 10.15.0.0 > Reporter: Warren MacEvoy > Priority: Major > > Releases have md5 sum for signatures, and nothing modern.
