MATH_MD5Init

C Specification

#include <nitro/math/dgt.h>

static inline void MATH_MD5Init( MATHMD5Context *context );

Arguments

context   Pointer to the context structure used for initializing MD5 generation.

Return Values

None.

Description

This function initializes the MATHMD5Context type context structure used in calculating MD5. Make sure that this function is called before using MATH_MD5Update and MATH_MD5GetHash. You can re-apply this function to a context structure that is already initialized. In this case, it will return the context structure to its initial state. MD5 is an algorithm to find the message digest value. For details, see RFC (Request For Comments) 1321, which is published by IETF (The Internet Engineering Task Force).
