[Passwordsafe-devel] parting thought

[Edward E. <pas...@ed...>]

Hello all -

My involvement with Passwordsafe has been minimal to say the least.  My 
only contribution was to suggest a safer alternative to the original 
secure string class, way back when the project first appeared on 
SourceForge.

I don't know if the changes were ever made (I never touched the code), 
but in my posts to the mailing list I mentioned an article I wrote on 
secure STL containers.  I just wanted to let everyone know that article 
has been published (finally!) in the May 2003 issue of C/C++ User's 
Journal.  The latest source code is available for download at

http://www.eddeye.net/src/secalloc.html

The included documentation and examples are enough to figure out how to 
use it, but I would recommend reading the article to learn about the 
gotchas and determine if it's suitable for use in PasswordSafe.

Anyway that's it for me.  I'm unsubscribing from the list and leaving 
the project (at least, that's what I would say if I'd ever actually been 
a part of the project :).  If anyone wants to contact me, please email 
the user 'secalloc' at the domain in the above url.
