CloseFile and formats to file created

Post by Juan Carlos »

I have one question there is an option when you open a file in mode write for you close this file the file doesn't show the ascii charapters?
I want make a password system to saves one key for make a parents control to my erotic games, where you put one password to avoid that child... or wives play to this, but if the file with the password is ascii you can see the password, and if there is a parameter to close it without you can see this, and open the file too to use it.

You could use Base64Str() and then CompressFile() on that string to hide the file's content. This is of course a very weak protection but in your case it should be sufficient.

Thank for your suggestions, I tryed the Base64Str() but curiosly it encode but the same instruction not decode:
EnClave64$=Base64Str("Marina", encode)
It gives us: TWFyaW5h
but is you maked the inverse EnClave64$=Base64Str("TWFyaW5h, decode)
now it gives us: VFdGeWFXNWg=
The next code is the better exmaple:

Code: Select all

;Valores por defecto de la tabla.
passwordtable={" "} ;Hay iniciarla para poder usarla, si no no graba nada.
ClaveParental$=passwordtable[0]


/****** FUNCIONES DEL MENU ******/
@MENU 0,

    {"Crear clave parental", ID="CreaClave", Flags=#MENUITEM_TOGGLE},
    {"Probar clave parental", ID="PruebaClave", Flags=#MENUITEM_TOGGLE},

}
/*****************************************************************/

				p_CreaClave()
				doreq=False

				doreq=False

use it like this (something seems wrong to decode attribute llok reversed !!)

Code: Select all

encoded = Base64Str("Marina",decode=True)
decoded = Base64Str(encoded,decode=False)
DebugPrint("Marina in base64 = "..encoded)
DebugPrint(encoded.." is decoded back from Base64 to "..decoded)
However you are approaching your problem wrong :)
in general a password for security reasons is NOT stored in any reverse form (even thought your system not really matters)

you store an NON REVERSING seed of your password and you check every time with it

i.e.
storedpasswordseed=MD5Str("Marina")

every time a user insert a password you check the checksum

if md5str(NewPassWordJustInsertedNyUSer)=passwordseed .. blah blah

Thank you for your help, I have other system as you tell me saving a code instead of name, I think that the Base64Str has the option to Code a name, I uses this wrong way because I think in the easy way and the beautiful to save the password with a name instead of numerical string.
