Decrypting what Pathscrambler do from outside uniface.exe

Author: knut.ivar.alvestad@logica.com (knutia)

Hi Using Pathscrambler.exe to Encrypting Path and or asn files works grate and uniface.exe works as normal. The bad ting for us is that we use a home made .exe file that uses the asn files db connection string. this is used to test if ther is somthing to that uniface needs to prosses or not. The queston is can we use anny of the uniface dll like uenc.dll or ulib.dll (notice Pathscrambler.exe is using this two) to Decrypting the string in ouer homemade .exe?

Do you use the ASN-file outside your homemade EXE? If not, what about encyrpting the ASN-file by a routine of your own. Then you can decyrpt it in EXE, check the database and create a new, temporäry ASN-file with use of pathscrambler for starting UNIFACE.EXE Ingo
