NAME

MD5 - Perl interface to the MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm

SYNOPSIS

  use MD5;
 
 

  $context = new MD5;
  $context->reset();
 
 

  $context->add(LIST);
  $context->addfile(HANDLE);
 
 

  $digest = $context->digest();
  $string = $context->hexdigest();
 
 

  $digest = MD5->hash(SCALAR);
  $string = MD5->hexhash(SCALAR);
 
 

DESCRIPTION

The "MD5" module is depreciated. Use "Digest::MD5" instead.

The current "MD5" module is just a wrapper around the "Digest::MD5" module. It is provided so that legacy code that rely on the old interface still work and get the speed benefit of the new module.

In addition to the methods provided for "Digest::MD5" objects, this module provide the class methods MD5->hash() and MD5->hexhash() that do the same as the md5() and md5_hex() functions provided by "Digest::MD5".
