(True = True) isn't equals ! - Brokeos - Dec 23, 2013
Hello, I have a big problem!
I get back a file ini, everything goes well, it corresponds to what I want.
Then, I read the value "pass" of the ini file.
And, when I compare the value return of my Sha512 with the value "pass" of the ini file, He says that it is different! but nevertheless they are similar!
French :
Bonjours, j'ai un gros problème
J'ai un fichier ini que je lis, tout ce passe bien.
Je récupére la valeur "pass" du fichier ini.
Et, quand je compare la valeur retourner de ma fonction Sha512 avec la valeur "pass" du fichier ini, il me dit que c'est différent pourtant ils sont pareils ! (j'ai fait le test avec des msgbox !)

Msgbox the both values and check where is the problem.

I already checked x)

Put .Trim at the end of both values. It might be a space which makes the difference.

No, I tested everything !
If you want, I load the project and I'll send?

If you tested everything and it isn't working then you are doing something wrong; you didn't test everything. Post the relevant code, and show what the values are that are being compared. They are different.
Breakpoint and see the hash to hash comparison.

I found, even if it is not very clean, I separate the "pass" profile file

Please show your code. Can't really help much without it.
Did you hash the input and check it with the value in the ini file?
Is the value in the ini file a SHA512 hash also?

Try adding a msgbox to display both the values so you can see the difference for yourself?
* - Pseudocode - Dec 23, 2013
Trim the end, then, if it is a string, try using String.Equals()

Why would it not be a string if you can call a Trim function on the object? Aside from the fact that it is a string as mentioned.
However, this is literally a 5 second proof that could be configured to see that the values are probably different, and a 1-5 minute fix at most depending on how he's got everything implemented, and OP doesn't take our word for it. Let 'em have at it if he truly things those strings are the same IMO, lol.

Btw, I replied. How does this have anything to do with the suggestions I posted? And how does it help us help you when it isn't even relevant to the question this thread's creation was based off of? 🤨 Separation of files has nothing to do with whether or not 2 strings are evaluating as equal or not.
1. Did you try breakpointing?
2. Did you post any code? (a bit rhetorical)
I haven't seen anything, and you expect to get help? ❓ We might as well just be running around like drunken blindfolded idiots with guns trying to shoot a target.

Code
Private Sub btn_login_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles btn_login.Click
If txt_user.Text.Equals("") Or txt_pass.Text.Equals("") Then
MsgBox("Wrong data !", MsgBoxStyle.Critical)
Else
IO.File.WriteAllText(Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) & "\CloudUp\settings.ini", DownloadSource(server & "users/" & txt_user.Text & "/account.info")
If ReadIni("Profil","pass",Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) & "\CloudUp\settings.ini") = Sha512(txt_pass.Text) Then
WritePrivateProfileString("Login", "user", txt_user.Text, Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) & "\CloudUp\settings.ini")
WritePrivateProfileString("Login", "pass", txt_pass.Text, Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.ApplicationData) & "\CloudUp\settings.ini")
MsgBox("Hello " & txt_user.Text & " !", MsgBoxStyle.Information)
user = txt_user.Text
Cloud.Show()
Me.Close()

MsgBox("Wrong username or password !", MsgBoxStyle.Critical)

Sha512 Function = Original sha256 x2 (Sha256(Sha256(MyText)))
ReadIni Function =
Public Function ReadIni(ByVal cRubrique As String, ByVal cKey As String, ByVal cFileName As String) As String
Dim cRepertoire As String = Space(255)
Get_Private_Profile_String(cRubrique, cKey, "", cRepertoire, cFileName)
Return Trim(cRepertoire)
End Function
DownloadSource Function = Net.WebClient.DownloadString(url)* - Temploit - Dec 24, 2013
Dim cRepertoire As String = Space(255)
Check the lenght of both string (.Lenght())
I think one has 255 while the other way less.

No, the function works well ;)
When I ask the pass value, she return good value ;)

Just because they look the same doesn't mean they are the same (spaces)
