I've tried the last couple of hours to implement this encryption algorithm in lite-c for encrypting STRING* declarations, but with not that much of a success. So here I am in need of help from the big guy out there XXTEA C code: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XXTEA TEA C code: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiny_Encryption_Algorithm I've tried typecasting STRING, char when passing them into the functions but all I got was either crashes or weird returned characters after decryption. Can someone point out what I am doing wrong? Since the algorithm code is already there in the wiki, there isn't really that much of work left to be done, but I can't seem to be get it to work Regards, Endu!

The algorithm from wiki and this: Code: typedef unsigned int uint32_t; //(for the TEA) str_cpy(plaintext,"Text to be encrypted"); str_cpy(key,"7813498"); returned = encrypt ((uint32_t)plaintext, (uint32_t)key); wait(-5); beep(); str_cpy (str_show, (STRING*)returned); //To show on screen Then the same method for decrypting it back with the algorithm from the wiki. This example is the TEA, not XXTEA. I've also added return(v); at the end of the TEA function so "returned" catches it. Last edited by Enduriel; 06/11/09 12:47.
