Renaming more clearly SHA functions in pgcrypto/
Hi all,
(folks interested in that in CC)
While looking at some facility in pgcrypto, I have noticed the stanza
created by 56f4478 to prevent conflicts with OpenSSL, like that:
+#define SHA256_Init pg_SHA256_Init
+#define SHA256_Update pg_SHA256_Update
Wouldn't it be better to avoid that, and just rename all those
functions as pg_shaXX_foo? It seems to me that this would be more
in-line with what's already in core. This renaming would be part of
the refactoring effort for SCRAM to have all the functions for SHA1,
SHA156, etc in a unique file sha.c in src/common with a reworked
interface, particularly for SHA1 where things are quite inconsistent
with SHA2XX.
Opinions? As that's a matter really rather independent on SCRAM, I
prefer creating a new thread to gather opinions..
Thanks,

OK, so I guess I'll get something into a shape like that.
