If B<md> is NULL, the digest is placed in a static 59 array. 60 61 The following functions may be used if the message is not completely 62 stored in memory: 63 64 MD2_Init() initializes a B<MD2_CTX> structure. 65 66 MD2_Update() can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to 67 be hashed (B<len> bytes at B<data>). 68 69 MD2_Final() places the message digest in B<md>, which must have space 70 for MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes of output, and erases the B<MD2_CTX>. 71 72 MD4_Init(), MD4_Update(), MD4_Final(), MD5_Init(), MD5_Update(), and 73 MD5_Final() are analogous using an B<MD4_CTX> and B<MD5_CTX> structure. The parameter B<MUST NOT> be NULL. 74 75 Applications should use the higher level functions 76 L<EVP_DigestInit(3)> 77 etc. instead of calling the hash functions directly. 78 79 =head1 NOTE 80 81 MD2, MD4, and MD5 are recommended only for compatibility with existing 82 applications. In new applications, hashes from the SHA-2 or SHA-3 family 83 should be preferred. 84 85 =head1 RETURN VALUES 86 87 MD2(), MD4(), and MD5() return pointers to the hash value. 88 89 MD2_Init(), MD2_Update(), MD2_Final(), MD4_Init(), MD4_Update(), 90 MD4_Final(), MD5_Init(), MD5_Update(), and MD5_Final() return 1 for 91 success, 0 otherwise. 92 93 =head1 CONFORMING TO 94 95 RFC 1319, RFC 1320, RFC 1321 96 97 =head1 SEE ALSO 98 99 L<EVP_DigestInit(3)>, L<EVP_MD-SHA2(7)>, L<EVP_MD-SHA3(7)> 100 101 =head1 HISTORY 102 103 All of these functions were deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0. 104 105 =head1 COPYRIGHT 106 107 Copyright 2000-2024 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
