Crypt::PBKDF2::Hash(3pm)                   User Contributed Perl Documentation


NAME
       Crypt::PBKDF2::Hash - Abstract role for PBKDF2 hashing algorithms.

VERSION
       version 0.261630

METHODS
   hash_len()
       Returns the length (in bytes) of the hashes this algorithm generates.

   generate($data, $key)
       Generate strong pseudorandom bits based on the $data and $key

   to_algo_string()
       Return a string representing any optional arguments this object was
       created with, for use by Crypt::PBKDF2's "generate" and "encode_string"
       methods. May return undef if no arguments are required, in which case
       none will be serialized and "from_algo_string" won't be called on
       reading the hash.

   from_algo_string($str)
       Given a string as produced by "from_algo_string", return an instance of
       this class with options corresponding to those in $str. If no options
       are expected, it's permissible for this method to throw an exception.
