Calculating SHA-1 hashes in Java and C#
I'm trying to replicate the logic of a Java application within a C# application. Part of this involves generating an SHA-1 hash of a password. Unfortunately I can't get the same results from Java and C#.
C# Output : 64 0a b2 ba e0 7b ed c4 c1 63 f6 79 a7 46 f7 ab 7f b5 d1 fa Java Output: 164 10a b2 ba e0 17b ed c4 c1 163 f6 179 a7 146 f7 ab 17f b5 d1 fa
To try and figure out what is happening I've been using the Debugger in Eclipse and Visual Studio.
1. Check values of byte[] key: Java: { 84, 101, 115, 116 } C# : { 84, 101, 115, 116 } 2. Check value of byte[] hash: Java: { 100 10 -78 -70 -32 123 ... } C# : { 100 10 78 186 224 123 ... }
I've read the other posts on this topic, which largely refer to input string encoding, but these don't seem to have helped me. My guess would be that this is something to do with signed vs. unsigned bytes but I'm not making much progress down this track. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Java Version:
public void testHash() {
String password = "Test";
byte[] key = password.getBytes();
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1");
byte[] hash = md.digest(key);
String result = "";
for ( byte b : hash ) {
result += Integer.toHexString(b + 256) + " ";
}
System.out.println(result);
}
C# Version:
public void testHash() {
String password = "Test";
byte[] key = System.Text.Encoding.Default.GetBytes(password);
SHA1 sha1 = SHA1Managed.Create();
byte[] hash = sha1.ComputeHash(key);
String result;
foreach ( byte b in hash ) {
result += Convert.ToInt32(b).ToString("x2") + " ";
}
Console.WriteLine(result);
}
