Hello all.
I need to generate some blowfish encoded strings, and pass them to a .NET program which should be able to decode them.
I´m trying to use J-Blowfish but I cannot get consistent results compared to some online Blowfish tools (http://sladex.org/blowfish.js/ or https://webnet77.net/cgi-bin/helpers/blowfish.pl)
I know string is padded with nulls. Tried that and also tried to use 8/16/24 length strings, with no luck in getting the same result.
Is there something I´m missing?
Thanks!
Hi there are several Clarion Blowfish versions floating around (at least there were maybe 10 years ago when I looked).
Often I found they did not tend to give the “standard” results meaning they were not useful where interacting with other software.
Capesoft’s Cryptonite has a blowfish class that might be worth a try…

See my old blog for an explanation of why:

I´ll check that.
Thanks to both!
