[cobalt-users] Raq4 - HSBC C Library

[John K Mitchell <johnm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi there,

I have a client that is looking to link their shopping care to the HSBC 
payment system.

I've seen a copy of the user guide and it mentions that the client 
should run a copy of a 'C' library (or a JAVA API) on the server to 
generate a hash value for the string being passed to the bank.

Now then, I'm not totally happy about this, especially when the client 
rang the bank and was told that the library has not been tested on any 
Cobalt Raq's.

My question is, has anyone tried to link to the HSBC payment system from 
a Raq.  If not I don't think I want to be the first ;-)

Any comments (even if its - Dont do it) would be appreciated.

Cheers

John
