The functions all need to be passed -a MD2_CTX which is used to hold the MD2 context during multiple MD2_Update() -function calls. The normal method of use for this library is as follows - -MD2_Init(...); -MD2_Update(...); -... -MD2_Update(...); -MD2_Final(...); - -This library requires the inclusion of 'md2.h'. - -The main negative about MD2 is that it is slow, especially when compared -to MD5. - -The functions are as follows: - -void MD2_Init( -MD2_CTX *c); - This function needs to be called to initiate a MD2_CTX structure for - use. - -void MD2_Update( -MD2_CTX *c; -unsigned char *data; -unsigned long len); - This updates the message digest context being generated with 'len' - bytes from the 'data' pointer. The number of bytes can be any - length. - -void MD2_Final( -unsigned char *md; -MD2_CTX *c; - This function is called when a message digest of the data digested - with MD2_Update() is wanted. The message digest is put in the 'md' - array and is MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH (16) bytes long. - -unsigned char *MD2( -unsigned long n; -unsigned char *d; -unsigned char *md; - This function performs a MD2_Init(), followed by a MD2_Update() - followed by a MD2_Final() (using a local MD2_CTX). - The resulting digest is put into 'md' if it is not NULL. - Regardless of the value of 'md', the message - digest is returned from the function. If 'md' was NULL, the message - digest returned is being stored in a static structure. |
