gimp_md5_get_digest ()

void        gimp_md5_get_digest             (const gchar *buffer,
                                             gint buffer_size,
                                             guchar digest[16]);

Get the md5 hash of a buffer. The result is put in the 16 bytes buffer digest.

The MD5 algorithm takes as input a message of arbitrary length and produces as output a 128-bit "fingerprint" or "message digest" of the input. It is conjectured that it is computationally infeasible to produce two messages having the same message digest, or to produce any message having a given prespecified target message digest.
