Hi Michel,

As the function only accepts strings as input, you can either explicitly cast your binary item to string – via xs:string($binary)… or contact the author of the module (Claudius Teodorescu) and issue a feature request.

Greetings all,

I would like to perform cryptographic operations with arbitrary binary files but am unable to figure how to convert the output of file:read-binary() to something that could be processed by crypto:hmac() for example.

Can You give me a hint please?

TIA Best regards Michel
