Re: Program to Calculate Hash using SHA-256 of a file

I agree that it was created after V5R2 but the QC3HASH function is documented as supporting SHA-256 in V5R4.

I am afraid that V5R2 will not support SHA-256. It is a newer hash introduced long after V5R2 went out of support. You will have to be at V7R1 minimally to have that capacity and maybe V7R2... Not quite sure.

Hi all

I'm looking for an example how to calculate Hash using SHA-256 . be patient
for my request : this should be run on V5R2m0 (it would be possible)

I found this old link

hm-from-RPGLE.html, but i don't know how to (if possible) adapt to SHA-256
