I finally got the right output:
instead of doing:

Code:

// WRONG
string myString("800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D");
string myStringSHA = SHA256(myString)

I used:

Code:

// OK
string digest;
StringSource(myString, true, new HexDecoder(new StringSink(digest)));
string myStringSHA = SHA256(digest);

Thanks a lot

Exactly! ;-)

It can be tricky.

Are there different implementations of SHA256 ?

from the bx library:

>bx sha256 800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D
8147786c4d15106333bf278d71dadaf1079ef2d2440a4dde37d747ded5403592

from https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Wallet_import_format
sha256 (800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D) =
8147786c4d15106333bf278d71dadaf1079ef2d2440a4dde37d747ded5403592

and

from c++ crypto++:
sha256(800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D) =

sha256(800C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D) =

The difference is in hashing the string (an ASCII representation of a hex number) instead of the actual hex number itself.

The wiki hashes the number, the calculator is hashing the string.
