This API supports the product infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code. Implements the SGen task. Use the SGen element in your project file to create and execute this task. For usage and parameter information, see SGen Task.
What is a cryptographic hash? A hash (also called a digest, and informally a checksum) is a kind of signature for a stream of data that represents the contents. The closest real-life analog we can think is a tamper-evident seal on a software package: if you open the box (change the file), it's detected.
Decrypted Text. In cryptography, encryption is the process of transforming information (referred to as plaintext) using an algorithm (called cipher) to make it unreadable to anyone except those possessing special knowledge, usually referred to as a key. The result of the process is encrypted information (in cryptography, referred to as ciphertext). In many contexts, the word encryption also implicitly refers to the reverse process, decryption (e.g. âsoftware for encryptionâ can typically also perform decryption), to make the encrypted information readable again (i.e. to make it unencrypted).
