It's a great move but nearly every lang on Earth has a solid 3rd party Win32 library built over years and battle hardened.
Waiting patiently for Microsoft to actually put some effort into the obscure TPM documentation along with making it easier for developers to implement.
- tinus_hn 6y agoThe TPM infrastructure is full of leaks that can’t be fixed, they’re not going to expose that with documentation. It’s like asking them to document a vendor to open-source their DRM.
- BelenusMordred 6y ago> full of leaks that can’t be fixed Not claiming it's perfect, saying it exists on nearly every cpu running Windows today. There's serious value for plenty of people out there to have access to these interfaces that are only internally documented and available to a small group of people from one company alone. Only have to look at the history of adding randomness to CryptographyAPI-NextGen to understand where I'm coming from. No one has been able to add an additional RNG source to the Windows entropy pool for ~15 years now, highly venerable Microsoft developers say this is a good thing in public for all their enterprise clients when basic maths proves it wrong in about 2 minutes. They do not have your best interests at heart, no matter how big you are, in fact it's less likely the bigger you are.
