public class MD4

extends MessageDigestSpi

implements Cloneable

An implementation of Ron Rivest's MD4 message digest algorithm. MD4 was the precursor to the stronger MD5 algorithm, and while not considered cryptograpically secure itself, MD4 is in use in various applications. It is slightly faster than MD5.

This implementation is derived from the version of MD4 in GNU Crypto.

static int	DIGEST_LENGTH An MD4 message digest is always 128-bits long, or 16 bytes.

Constructor Summary
