If .Fa md is .Dv NULL , the digest is placed in a static array. .Pp The following functions may be used if the message is not completely stored in memory: .Pp .Fn MD5_Init initializes a .Vt MD5_CTX structure. .Pp .Fn MD5_Update can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to be hashed .Pq Fa len No bytes at Fa data . .Pp .Fn MD5_Final places the message digest in .Fa md , which must have space for .Dv MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH No == 16 bytes of output, and erases the .Vt MD5_CTX . .Pp .Fn MD4_Init , .Fn MD4_Update , and .Fn MD4_Final are analogous using an .Vt MD4_CTX structure. .Pp Applications should use the higher level functions .Xr EVP_DigestInit 3 etc. instead of calling these hash functions directly. .Sh RETURN VALUES .Fn MD4 and .Fn MD5 return pointers to the hash value. .Pp .Fn MD4_Init , .Fn MD4_Update , .Fn MD4_Final , .Fn MD5_Init , .Fn MD5_Update , and .Fn MD5_Final return 1 for success or 0 otherwise. .Sh SEE ALSO .Xr EVP_DigestInit 3 .Sh STANDARDS RFC 1320, RFC 1321 .Sh HISTORY .Fn MD5 , .Fn MD5_Init , .Fn MD5_Update , and .Fn MD5_Final appeared in SSLeay 0.4 or earlier and have been available since .Ox 2.4 . .Pp .Fn MD4 , .Fn MD4_Init , .Fn MD4_Update , and .Fn MD4_Final first appeared in OpenSSL 0.9.6 and have been available since .Ox 2.9 .
