=head1 NAME

MD2, MD5, MD2_Init, MD2_Update, MD2_Final, MD5_Init, MD5_Update,
MD5_Final - MD2 and MD5 hash functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/md2.h>

 unsigned char *MD2(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n,
                  unsigned char *md);

 void MD2_Init(MD2_CTX *c);
 void MD2_Update(MD2_CTX *c, const unsigned char *data,
                  unsigned long len);
 void MD2_Final(unsigned char *md, MD2_CTX *c);


 #include <openssl/md5.h>

 unsigned char *MD5(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n,
                  unsigned char *md);

 void MD5_Init(MD5_CTX *c);
 void MD5_Update(MD5_CTX *c, const unsigned char *data,
                  unsigned long len);
 void MD5_Final(unsigned char *md, MD5_CTX *c);

=head1 DESCRIPTION

MD2 and MD5 are cryptographic hash functions with a 128 bit output.

MD2() and MD5() compute the MD2 and MD5 message digest of the B<n>
bytes at B<d> and place it in B<md> (which must have space for
MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH == MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes of output). If
B<md> is NULL, the digest is placed in a static array.

The following functions may be used if the message is not completely
stored in memory:

MD2_Init() initializes a B<MD2_CTX> structure.

MD2_Update() can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to
be hashed (B<len> bytes at B<data>).

MD2_Final() places the message digest in B<md>, which must have space
for MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes of output, and erases the B<MD2_CTX>.

MD5_Init(), MD5_Update() and MD5_Final() are analogous using an
B<MD5_CTX> structure.

=head1 NOTE

MD2 and MD5 are recommended only for compatibility with existing
applications. In new applications, SHA-1 or RIPEMD-160 should be
preferred.

=head1 RETURN VALUES

MD2() and MD5() return pointers to the hash value. 

MD2_Init(), MD2_Update() MD2_Final(), MD5_Init(), MD5_Update() and
MD5_Final() do not return values.

=head1 CONFORMING TO

=head1 HISTORY

MD2(), MD2_Init(), MD2_Update() MD2_Final(), MD5(), MD5_Init(),
MD5_Update() and MD5_Final() are available in all versions of SSLeay
and OpenSSL.
