.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
\&\s-1MD2, MD4,\s0 and \s-1MD5\s0 are cryptographic hash functions with a 128 bit output.
.PP
\&\s-1\fBMD2\s0()\fR, \s-1\fBMD4\s0()\fR, and \s-1\fBMD5\s0()\fR compute the \s-1MD2, MD4,\s0 and \s-1MD5\s0 message digest
of the \fBn\fR bytes at \fBd\fR and place it in \fBmd\fR (which must have space
for \s-1MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH\s0 == \s-1MD4_DIGEST_LENGTH\s0 == \s-1MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH\s0 == 16
bytes of output). If \fBmd\fR is \s-1NULL,\s0 the digest is placed in a static
array.
.PP
The following functions may be used if the message is not completely
stored in memory:
.PP
\&\fBMD2_Init()\fR initializes a \fB\s-1MD2_CTX\s0\fR structure.
.PP
\&\fBMD2_Update()\fR can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to
be hashed (\fBlen\fR bytes at \fBdata\fR).
.PP
\&\fBMD2_Final()\fR places the message digest in \fBmd\fR, which must have space
for \s-1MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH\s0 == 16 bytes of output, and erases the \fB\s-1MD2_CTX\s0\fR.
.PP
\&\fBMD4_Init()\fR, \fBMD4_Update()\fR, \fBMD4_Final()\fR, \fBMD5_Init()\fR, \fBMD5_Update()\fR, and
\&\fBMD5_Final()\fR are analogous using an \fB\s-1MD4_CTX\s0\fR and \fB\s-1MD5_CTX\s0\fR structure.
.PP
Applications should use the higher level functions
\&\fBEVP_DigestInit\fR\|(3)
etc. instead of calling the hash functions directly.
.SH "NOTE"
.IX Header "NOTE"
\&\s-1MD2, MD4,\s0 and \s-1MD5\s0 are recommended only for compatibility with existing
applications. In new applications, \s-1SHA\-1\s0 or \s-1RIPEMD\-160\s0 should be
preferred.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.IX Header "RETURN VALUES"
\&\s-1\fBMD2\s0()\fR, \s-1\fBMD4\s0()\fR, and \s-1\fBMD5\s0()\fR return pointers to the hash value.
.PP
\&\fBMD2_Init()\fR, \fBMD2_Update()\fR, \fBMD2_Final()\fR, \fBMD4_Init()\fR, \fBMD4_Update()\fR,
\&\fBMD4_Final()\fR, \fBMD5_Init()\fR, \fBMD5_Update()\fR, and \fBMD5_Final()\fR return 1 for
success, 0 otherwise.
