First I am clueless about such things so forgive me if I am asking dumb questions.
Locking at the docs on the PostgreSQL website for the current version, it prefers the use of SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication, as it is the most secure, but says that it is not supposed by older libraries which use md5.
the Xojo PostgreSQLDatabse docs:
http://documentation.xojo.com/api/databases/postgresqldatabase.html
only say the Xojo plugin supports md5. It says nothing about scram-sha-256… so I assumed Xojo did not support it…
I was going to file a feedback to support scram-sha-256, but i found in feedback that apparently it has been implemented…
As the docs are silent on scram-sha-256, if out actually does support it, is there anything I need to specify on the DB instance for it to use scram-sha-256, or is that handled by the plugin through handshaking with the server?
Thanks,
