(SHA-1 is a cryptographic hash function. For info on what SHA-1 is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SHA-1)
I'm writing fullportable C89 code that needs to make use of the SHA-1

If not, could someone please point me to a very good implementation of the

Here: http://www.mirrors.wiretapped.net/se.../call-6/sha1.c http://www.mirrors.wiretapped.net/se.../call-6/sha1.h
A google search for "sha1.c" turns up a zillion hits.
FWIW, the best implementations (typically a factor of 2x-4x faster)
will have inline assembly, so no wonder you are pulling up non-
portable stuff.
Try this as well: http://ece.gmu.edu/courses/Crypto_re.../libraries.htm
I guess with a little more practice you will learn how to find things
yourself with google.
Another good bet is SourceForge.
Oh, and by the way, searches for C source are not topical on
news:comp.lang. c (but the FAQ reference for news:comp.sourc es.wanted
is hopelessly outdated)

One more thing, there is a newsgroup called news:sci.crypt for this

Unfortunately, it is spam bombarded right now, so it's a little hard
to read.
Some newsreaders can remove most of the junk, though.

You will probably want an ISO C95 version. C89 was superseded by ISO
C90 and some amendments in 93-95. You will find more compilers support
c95 than anything else.

You don't want much do you... I am sure some one can sell you what you
need.
>I've done a few Google searches but I'm getting back a lot of

I think for a lot of crypto work you are going to find most of the
implementations are architecture or compiler specific. People usually
need the crypto code to be fast and compact. Generic code will be
neither.
Also in many cases for security the writer will want it less accessible
to hackers. We used various hardware resources to make things less
obvious and more secure. Whist security by concealment is not
recommended as a prime defence it does help when layered on top of other
things.
BTW for a repository of cypher sources see http://www.phaedsys.demon.co.uk/chris/index.htm
And click on ciphers. There is an SHA1, SHA2 and SHA3 implementation
Apologies for the state of the web site but it needs an overhaul.

C89 (ANSI) and C90 (ISO) describe exactly the same language; the only
changes were some introductory material and a renumbering of some of
the sections.
C95 made some minor changes to C90; I don't think anything added by
C95 would be relevant to an implementation of SHA-1.
I think C95 is entirely upward compatible with C90; C99 is *almost*
entirely upward compatible with C90 and C95. A sufficiently portable
C89/C90 implementation of SHA-1 should work with any C implementation.

I don't think C95 added anything useful to implement the SHA-1 algorithm,
or that it broke any C89 program.

Yes but it is the one that most compiler vendors used.

Most, but not all. In a discussion here a while ago, it was said that
some implementations support C90 but not C95. Given that C95 is a
superset of C90, more vendors support C90 than C95, and using
C95-specific features in SHA-1 code would make that code slightly less
portable.
