-The MD5 library.
-MD5 is a message digest algorithm that can be used to condense an arbitrary
-length message down to a 16 byte hash. The functions all need to be passed
-a MD5_CTX which is used to hold the MD5 context during multiple MD5_Update()
-function calls. This library also contains random number routines that are
-based on MD5
-
-The normal method of use for this library is as follows
-
-MD5_Init(...);
-MD5_Update(...);
-...
-MD5_Update(...);
-MD5_Final(...);
-
-This library requires the inclusion of 'md5.h'.
-
-The functions are as follows:
-
-void MD5_Init(
-MD5_CTX *c);
- This function needs to be called to initiate a MD5_CTX structure for
- use.
-
-void MD5_Update(
-MD5_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 MD5_Final(
-unsigned char *md;
-MD5_CTX *c;
- This function is called when a message digest of the data digested
- with MD5_Update() is wanted. The message digest is put in the 'md'
- array and is MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH (16) bytes long.
-
-unsigned char *MD5(
-unsigned char *d;
-unsigned long n;
-unsigned char *md;
- This function performs a MD5_Init(), followed by a MD5_Update()
- followed by a MD5_Final() (using a local MD5_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.
