Run

[Gergely Imre <gi...@barom.nextra.ro>]

Hi all!

How can I run a C program from an XML/XSL file? For example I have a login
page, with "Login name:" and "Login passwd:", and one button. When I press
the button, I want to run an external program to check the password. How
can I do that?
Or: is there some util to convert a string to an md5 encrypted string?
Thanx

	String password = "whatever";
	// Encode password as MD5
	java.security.MessageDigest md = 
	  java.security.MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
	byte[] digest = md.digest(password.getBytes());

jakarta.apache.org

Either grab a milestone build, or checkout a CVS tree if you feel brave.

What was the context?  Sorry - my Cocoon folders are AWOL at present so
I only have messages for the last few days.  System.exec() will let you
run a program, there are good examples of it in the Cocoon Javac invoker
(part of XSP) which shows how to grab the output from an external
program.

And where can I find that source?

OK, I hope I can do this, but I'm still wondering how can I run some
external programs?

I believe there is a function in Tomcat to do the md5 hash - grab the
Tomcat source and copy the code.  Of course, if you run Tomcat you can
just call the function.
