Revision history for Perl extension Crypt::RIPEMD160.
0.11 2026-03-22
Bug fixes:
- Replace platform-dependent C typedefs (unsigned char, unsigned int)
with C99 fixed-width types (uint8_t, uint32_t) from <stdint.h>.
This eliminates the class of portability bug from 0.04_01 where
dword was 8 bytes on 64-bit systems by guaranteeing exact widths
at the type level. PR #22
Maintenance:
- Remove unused `word` (unsigned short) typedef from rmd160.h. PR #22
- Fix cpanfile to reference XSLoader instead of replaced DynaLoader.
PR #22
