Detailed Description

This is a easy and safe interface to MD5-calculation.

To get a MD5-sum of data, instantiate a md5stream, copy your data into it and read the digest.

After calling getDigest or getHexDigest, the class can be reused for another md5-calculation. The algorithm is automatically reinitialized when the first character is received.

example:

  int main(int argc, char* argv[])
  {
    Md5stream s;
    for (int i = 1; i < argc; ++i)
    {
      std::ifstream in(argv[i]);
      if (in)
      {
        s << in.rdbuf();
        std::cout << s.getHexDigest() << "  " << argv[i] << std::endl;
      }
    }
  }
