[Drupy-general] password.inc

[Fernando P. G. <fer...@gm...>]

password.inc is 99% ready but I have a problem with "pass" statement:

PHP version:
function user_check_password($password, $account) {
  if (substr($account->pass, 0, 3) == 'U$P') {
    // This may be an updated password from user_update_7000(). Such hashes
    // have 'U' added as the first character and need an extra md5().
    $stored_hash = substr($account->pass, 1);
    $password = md5($password);
  }
  else {
    $stored_hash = $account->pass;
  }
  $hash = _password_crypt($password, $stored_hash);
  return ($hash && $stored_hash == $hash);
}

Python version:
def user_check_password(password, account):
  if (substr(account.pasw, 0, 3) == 'U$P'):
    # This may be an updated password from user_update_7000(). Such hashes
    # have 'U' added as the first character and need an extra md5().
    stored_hash = substr(account.pasw, 1)
    password = php.md5(password)
 
  else:
    stored_hash = account.pasw
 
  hash = _crypt(password, stored_hash)
  return (hash and stored_hash == hash)

I have renamed "pass" to "pasw", because Drupal plays with arrays to 
objects and sometimes objects to arrrays, I don't really know how 
$account got the property "pass" or can I just account['pass']?

Blessings and Thanks in advance!
