Implementations of the MySQL/MariaDB legacy function OLD_PASSWORD.
This is a collection of functions that recreate the legacy password generation function OLD_PASSWORD used by MySQL < v4.1.
You can use these functions to keep your applications running even after the OLD_PASSWORD function has been dropped from MySQL/MariaDB or your ORM doesn't allow the use of functions.
Current implementations:
- C (this is the reference implementation)
- Elixir
- GO
- Python
Planned implementations:
- Julia
- Erlang
- Clojure
- V
This is the original source code of the function my_make_scrambled_password_323 (see https://github.com/MariaDB/server in the file /server/sql/password.c).
Note: this code is licensed under the original GPL v2.
The test cases in c/old_password_test.cpp can be used to verify the correct implementation of the function in other programming languages.
