C++ sha512 function


SHA-512 is the largest hash function in the SHA-2 family of hash functions. SHA-512 provides 256 bits of security to digital signatures and hash-only applications.

If SHA-512 is to be used for password hashing, select a good work factor. For instance, apply 2^8 (256) rounds of SHA-512, and store 8 as your work factor along with the hashed password. Later, you can increase your work factor and then still verify older passwords. Use a unique random salt for each password hash, and store that next to the hashed password as well. A unique random salt protects your passwords by making dictionary attacks much harder.

main.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include "sha512.h"
 
using std::string;
using std::cout;
using std::endl;
 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    string input = "grape";
    string output1 = sha512(input);
 
    cout << "sha512('"<< input << "'):" << output1 << endl;
    return 0;
}

compile and run (in linux):
g++ sha512.cpp main.cpp -o sha512_example && ./sha512_example

output:
sha512('grape'):9375d1abdb644a01955bccad12e2f5c2bd8a3e226187e548d99c559a99461453b980123746753d07c169c22a5d9cc75cb158f0e8d8c0e713559775b5e1391fc4

I would move the macros like
#define SHA2_SHFR(x, n) (x &gt;&gt; n)
to the .cpp file.
