Somehow I need to generate a hash in Classic ASP which is equivalent to PHP's following function's output:
$hash = hash_hmac('SHA256', $message, pack('H*', $secret));
where $message = 'stackoverflow'; $secret = '1234567890ABCDEF';. I tried quite a lot approaches online, but none matches the PHP result:
bcb3452cd48c0f9048e64258ca24d0f3399563971d4a5dcdc531a7806b059e36
Method 1: Using dvim_brix_crypto-js-master_VB.asp online (using CrytoJS)
Function mac256(ent, key)
Dim encWA
Set encWA = ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray(ent)
Dim keyWA
Set keyWA = ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray(key)
Dim resWA
Set resWA = CryptoJS.HmacSHA256(encWA, key)
Set mac256 = resWA
End Function
Function ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray(data)
If (typename(data) = "String") Then
Set ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray = CryptoJS.enc.Utf8.parse(data)
Elseif (typename(data) = "JScriptTypeInfo") Then
On error resume next
'Set ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray = CryptoJS.enc.Utf8.parse(data.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Utf8))
Set ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray = CryptoJS.lib.WordArray.create().concat(data) 'Just assert that data is WordArray
If Err.number>0 Then
Set ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray = Nothing
End if
On error goto 0
Else
Set ConvertUtf8StrToWordArray = Nothing
End if
End Function
The script can be found here. This method gives:

Method 2: Pure Classic ASP Approach
Public Function HMAC_SHA256(prmKey, prmData)
Dim theKey : theKey = prmKey
Dim Block_Size, O_Pad, I_Pad
Block_Size = 64
O_Pad = 92 'HEX: 5c'
I_Pad = 54 'HEX: 36'
Dim iter, iter2
If Len(theKey) < Block_Size Then
For iter = 1 to Block_Size - Len(theKey)
theKey = theKey & chr(0)
Next
ElseIf Len(theKey) > Block_Size Then
theKey = SHA256(theKey)
End If
Dim o_key_pad : o_key_pad = ""
Dim i_key_pad : i_key_pad = ""
For iter = 1 to Block_Size
o_key_pad = o_key_pad & Chr(Asc(Mid(theKey,iter,1)) xor O_Pad)
i_key_pad = i_key_pad & Chr(Asc(Mid(theKey,iter,1)) xor I_Pad)
Next
HMAC_SHA256 = SHA256(o_key_pad & SHA256(i_key_pad & prmData))
End Function
result = HMAC_SHA256(secret, message)
This method gives:
bc0511316791176484c7d80bc8faaecd8388b75fb97516181ba6b361fd032531
Method 3: Using Amazon AWS's sha256.wsc (using CrytoJS)
Dim sha
Set sha = GetObject( "script:" & Server.MapPath("sha256.wsc") )
sha.hexcase = 0
result = sha.b64_hmac_sha256(secret, message)
The WSC can be found here. This method gives (same result as Method 1):

I think the problem is the pack() part, which changes the Hex string to binary. Therefore, I found a way to reproduce the pack() function in ASP:
Dim key2, hexarr, binstr
key2 = "12 34 56 78 90 AB CD EF"
hexarr = Split(key2)
ReDim binarr(UBound(hexarr))
For i = 0 To UBound(hexarr)
binarr(i) = Chr(CInt("&h" & hexarr(i)))
Next
binstr = Join(binarr, "")
where the key2 is the original secret with space added in every 2 characters. By replacing the secret with binstr, the methods now produce:
Method 1: 8ab9e595eab259acb10aa18df7fdf0ecc5ec593f97572d3a4e09f05fdd3aeb8f
Method 2: d23fcafb41d7b581fdae8c2a4a65bc3b19276a4bd367eda9e8e3de43b6a4d355
Method 3: 8ab9e595eab259acb10aa18df7fdf0ecc5ec593f97572d3a4e09f05fdd3aeb8f
None of the above results is identical to PHP's one. What did I miss now?
Check out the following example.
The only requirement with this approach is Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 (preinstalled starting from Windows Server 2003 R2) to use Com Interops.
I tried to be descriptive in the comments but feel free to ask questions about it.
'Returns Byte(), UTF-8 bytes of unicode string
Function Utf8Bytes(text)

End With
End Function
packed_secret = HexToBin("1234567890ABCDEF")
message = "stackoverflow"

string_hash = BinToHex(binary_hash)
Response.Write string_hash
Does anybody know how to make function in Libreoffice basic like str_ireplace in PHP?
I want to use in my cell function.
str_ireplace(search - range of cells, replace - range of cells, text)
or at least str_replace
I made really simple function
Function Str_ireplace(Search As Variant, Replace As Variant, Source As String)
Dim Result As String
Dim StartPos As Long
Dim CurrentPos As Long
Dim CurrentSearch As String
Dim CurrentReplace As String
Result = ""
For Row = Lbound( Search, 1 ) To Ubound( Search, 1 )
For Col = LBound(Search, 2) To UBound(Search, 2)
StartPos = 1
CurrentPos = 1
CurrentSearch = Search(Row, Col)
CurrentReplace = Replace(Row, Col)
Result = ""
Do While CurrentPos <> 0
CurrentPos = InStr(StartPos, Source, CurrentSearch)
If CurrentPos <> 0 Then
Result = Result + Mid(Source, StartPos, _
CurrentPos - StartPos)
Result = Result + CurrentReplace
StartPos = CurrentPos + Len(CurrentSearch)
Else
Result = Result + Mid(Source, StartPos, Len(Source))
End If ' Position <> 0
Loop
Source = Result
Next
Next
Str_ireplace = Result
End Function
I used this as example:
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/BASIC_Guide/Strings_(Runtime_Library)
try this
Syntax
REPLACE("Text"; Position; Length; "NewText")
Text refers to text of which a part will be replaced.
Position refers to the position within the text where the replacement will begin.
Length is the number of characters in Text to be replaced.
NewText refers to the text which replaces Text.
Example
=REPLACE("1234567";1;1;"444") returns "444234567". One character at position 1 is replaced by the complete NewText.
https://help.libreoffice.org/Calc/Text_Functions#Example_13
or
SUBSTITUTE("Text"; "SearchText"; "NewText"; Occurrence)
Example
=SUBSTITUTE("123123123";"3";"abc") returns 12abc12abc12abc.
=SUBSTITUTE("123123123";"3";"abc";2) returns 12312abc123.

I am connecting to a Pervasive SQL database which splits some data over two fields. DOUBLE fields are actually split into fieldName_1 and fieldName_2 where _1 is a 2 byte int and _2 is a 4 byte int.
I want to take these values and convert them using PHP into a usable value.
I have some example code to do the conversion, but it is written in Delphi which I do not understand:
{ Reconstitutes a SmallInt and LongInt that form }
{ a Real into a double. }
Function EntConvertInts (Const Int2 : SmallInt;
Const Int4 : LongInt) : Double; StdCall;
Var
TheRealArray : Array [1..6] Of Char;
TheReal : Real;
Begin
Move (Int2, TheRealArray[1], 2);
Move (Int4, TheRealArray[3], 4);
Move (TheRealArray[1], TheReal, 6);
Result := TheReal;
End;
Some data [fieldName_1,fieldName_2]
[132, 805306368] -> this should be 11
[132, 1073741824] -> this should be 12
I don't understand the logic enough to be able to port this into PHP. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks
EDIT.
This is the C code that they provided, showing sign/exponent:
double real_to_double (real r)
/* takes Pascal real, return C double */
{
union doublearray da;
unsigned x;
x = r[0] & 0x00FF; /* Real biased exponent in x */
/* when exponent is 0, value is 0.0 */
if (x == 0)
da.d = 0.0;
else {
da.a[3] = ((x + 894) << 4) | /* adjust exponent bias */
(r[2] & 0x8000) | /* sign bit */
((r[2] & 0x7800) >> 11); /* begin significand */
da.a[2] = (r[2] << 5) | /* continue shifting significand */
(r[1] >> 11);
da.a[1] = (r[1] << 5) |
(r[0] >> 11);
da.a[0] = (r[0] & 0xFF00) << 5; /* mask real's exponent */
}
return da.d;
}
Adding this as another answer because I've finally figured this out. Here is PHP code which will convert the values. It has to be manually calculated because PHP does not know how to unpack a Real48 (non standard). Explanation in comments below.
function BiIntToReal48($f1, $f2){
$x = str_pad(decbin($f1), 16, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);
$y = str_pad(decbin($f2), 32, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);
//full Real48 binary string
$real48 = $y . $x;
//Real48 format is V = (-1)^s * 1.f * 2^(exp-129)
// rightmost eight bits are the exponent (bits 40-->47)
// subtract 129 to get the final value
$exp = (bindec(substr($real48, -8)) - 129);
//Sign bit is leftmost bit (bit[0])
$sign =$real48[0];
//Now work through the significand - bits are fractional binary
//(1/2s place, 1/4s place, 1/8ths place, etc)
// bits 1-->39
// significand is always 1.fffffffff... etc so start with 1.0
$sgf = "1.0";
for ($i = 1; $i <= 39; $i++){
if ($real48[$i] == 1){
$sgf = $sgf + pow(2,-$i);
}
}
//final calculation
$final = pow(-1, $sign) * $sgf * pow(2,$exp);
return($final);
}
$field_1 = 132;
$field_2 = 805306368;
$ConvVal = BiIntToReal48($field_1, $field_2);
// ^ gives $ConvVal = 11, qed
I've been working on this issue for about a week now trying to get it sorted out for our organisation.
Our Finance dept use IRIS Exchequer and we need to get costs out. Using the above PHP code, I managed to get it working in Excel VBA with the following code (includes dependent functions). If not properly attributed below, I got all the long dec to bin functions from www.sulprobil.com. If you copy and paste the following code block into a Module you can reference my ExchequerDouble function from a cell.
Before I continue, I have to point out one error in the C/PHP code above. If you look at the Significand loops:
C/PHP: Significand = Significand + 2 ^ (-i)
VBA: Significand = Significand + 2 ^ (1 - i)
I noticed during testing that the answers were very close but often incorrect. Drilling further down I narrowed it down to the Significand. It might be a problem with translating the code from one language/methodology to another, or may have simply been a typo, but adding that (1 - i) made all the difference.
Function ExchequerDouble(Val1 As Integer, Val2 As Long) As Double
Dim Int2 As String
Dim Int4 As String
Dim Real48 As String
Dim Exponent As String
Dim Sign As String
Dim Significand As String
'Convert each value to binary
Int2 = LongDec2Bin(Val1, 16, True)
Int4 = LongDec2Bin(Val2, 32, True)
'Concatenate the binary strings to produce a 48 bit "Real"
Real48 = Int4 & Int2
'Calculate the exponent
Exponent = LongBin2Dec(Right(Real48, 8)) - 129
'Calculate the sign
Sign = Left(Real48, 1)
'Begin calculation of Significand
Significand = "1.0"
For i = 2 To 40
If Mid(Real48, i, 1) = "1" Then
Significand = Significand + 2 ^ (1 - i)
End If
Next i
ExchequerDouble = CDbl(((-1) ^ Sign) * Significand * (2 ^ Exponent))

This code works, but sometimes (around 1% of my test data) you end up a couple pennies out compared to Iris' EntDouble function from the Excel Addin. I'll attribute this to precision, unless someone can figure it out.
Ultimately getting this working in VBA was my proof of concept to check everything worked. The intended platform for this functionality was SQL Server. If you have your Exchequer DB linked to a SQL Server you should be able to run this function directly against the data from the Pervasive DB. In my case, we are going to dump out the last 2.5 years worth of transaction data into a static table on SQL Server, but we're only working with this data once a year so it's not an issue. The following two functions should sort you out. In terms of precision, they are equivalent to the VBA code above with some being out by a couple pennies sometimes, but it seems 99% of the time it's exactly the same. We use SQL Server 2000 so there are some things that can probably be optimised (Varchar(MAX) for one) for newer versions but ultimately this should work fine as far as I know.

Feel free to use either my VBA or SQL code. The truly hard work was done by whoever converted it to PHP above. If anyone finds any way of improving anything please do let me know so we can make this code as perfect as possible.
Thanks!
Delphi's Move command is used for moving blocks of memory from one place to another. This looks like old Delphi code - the Real type is obsolete, replaced with Double (edit Real48 replaces 6-byte Real), and the Byte type is probably a better one to use than Char. Both are bytes, but Char is more meant for single byte characters (ascii). What this code is doing is:
1) Declare an array of Char(could use Byte here) which is six bytes in length. Also declare a Real (edit now Real48 type) to store the converted value.
TheRealArray : Array [1..6] Of Char;
TheReal : Real;
2) Move the two-byte Int value TO TheRealArray - start at index1 and move 2 bytes of data (ie: all of Int2, a SmallInt (16-bits)). Do the same with Int4 and start it at index [3], 4 bytes long.
Move (Int2, TheRealArray[1], 2);
Move (Int4, TheRealArray[3], 4);
if you started with (picture, not code)
Int2 = [2_byte0][2_byte1]
Int4 = [4_byte0][4_byte1][4_byte2][4_byte3]
you would have:
TheRealArray = [2_byte0][2_byte1][4_byte0][4_byte1][4_byte2][4_byte3]
The final move command copies this array to the memory location of TheReal, which is a real (6-byte float) type. It starts at index1 of the array, copies it to TheReal, and copies a total of six bytes (ie:the whole thing).
Move (TheRealArray[1], TheReal, 6);
Assuming that the data stored in Int2 and Int4, when concatenated like this, produce a properly formatted Real48 then you end up with TheReal holding the data in the proper format.
in PHP strings are fundamentally byte arrays (like Array[1..6] of Char in Delphi) so you could do the something similar using unpack() to convert to float.
Just spinning on J...'s answer.
Utilizing a variant record the code is somewhat simplified :
Function EntConvertInts (Const Int2 : SmallInt;
Const Int4 : LongInt) : Double; StdCall;
Type
TReal48PlaceHolder = record
case boolean of
true : (theRealArray : array [1..6] of byte);
false : (r48 : Real48);
end;
Var
R48Rec : TReal48PlaceHolder;
Begin
Move (Int2, R48Rec.theRealArray[1], 2);
Move (Int4, R48Rec.theRealArray[3], 4);
Result := R48Rec.r48;
End;
var
r : Double;
begin
r:= EntConvertInts(132,805306368);
WriteLn(r); // Should be 11
r:= EntConvertInts(141,1163395072);
WriteLn(r); // Should be 6315
ReadLn;
end.
That is nor answer in "PHP code" sense. I just wanted to warn any person who maybe would find this code by Delphi tag.
THAT WAS NOT DELPHI !!!
It is old Turbo Pascal code. Okay, maybe 16-bit Delphi 1, which really was TP on steroids.
Don't try this code on 32-bit Delphi, at least not before replacing Char and Real types that changed. Both those types are changed from Turbo Pascal times, especially 6-byte Real which never was hardware FPU-compatible!
Probably FreePascal can bear vanilla TurboPascal code if settled to proper mode, but better still use Delphi mode and updated code.

One should also ensure that SmallInt type is 16-bit integer (int16) and LongInt is 32-bit(int32). This seemes to hold for 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit Delphi compilers, yet probably may change in other Pascal implementations.

Below i try to modify code compatible with modern Delphi. I was not able to test it though.
Hopefully that might help someone someday covert some similat old type-casting TurboPascal code to newer flavours.
This code is directly following original one, yet more compatible, concise and fast.
{ Reconstitutes a SmallInt and LongInt that form }
{ a Real into a double. }
Function EntConvertInts (Const Int2 : SmallInt;
Const Int4 : LongInt) : Double;
(* StdCall; - only needed for non-Pascal DLLs *)
Var
TheRealArray : Packed Array [1..6] Of Byte; //AnsiChar may suffice too
TheReal : Real48 absolute TheRealArray;
TheInt2 : SmallInt absolute TheRealArray[1];
TheInt4 : LongInt absolute TheRealArray[3];
Begin
Assert(SizeOf(TheInt2) = 2);
Assert(SizeOf(TheInt4) = 2);
Assert(SizeOf(TheReal) = 6);
TheInt2 := Int2; (* Move (Int2, TheRealArray[1], 2); *)
TheInt4 := Int4; (* Move (Int4, TheRealArray[3], 4); *)
(* Move (TheRealArray[1], TheReal, 6); *)
Result := TheReal;
End;
This code is directly using native Turbo Pascal features tagless variant record
{ Reconstitutes a SmallInt and LongInt that form }
{ a Real into a double. }
Function EntConvertInts (Const Int2 : SmallInt;
Const Int4 : LongInt) : Double;
(* StdCall; - only needed for non-Pascal DLLs *)
Var
Value : Packed Record
Case Byte of
0: (TheReal: Real48);
1: (Packed Record TheInt2: SmallInt;
TheInt4: LongInt; end; );
end;
Begin
Assert(SizeOf(Value.TheInt2) = 2);
Assert(SizeOf(Value.TheInt4) = 2);
Assert(SizeOf(Value.TheReal) = 6);
Value.TheInt2 := Int2; (* Move (Int2, TheRealArray[1], 2); *)
Value.TheInt4 := Int4; (* Move (Int4, TheRealArray[3], 4); *)
