Class Digester
Utility class for creating digests without using a salt or iterating
the hash function. This means that digests created by this class will
be compatible (and equivalent) to the ones which could be created by
the user by directly using a MessageDigest
object.
This class can be thought of as convenience wrapper for
MessageDigest
, adding thread-safety and
a more javabean-like interface to it. These two features enable a more
adequate use from an IoC container like Spring.
This class internally holds a StandardByteDigester
configured this way:
- Algorithm: MD5 by default, but configurable.
- Provider: Default JVM security provider, but configurable.
- Salt size: 0 bytes, no salt used.
- Iterations: 1, hash function will not be iterated.
This class is thread-safe
- Since:
- 1.2 (class existed as org.jasypt.util.MessageDigester since 1.1)

Method Details
-
setAlgorithm
Sets the algorithm to be used for digesting, like MD5 or SHA-1.
This algorithm has to be supported by your security infrastructure, and it should be allowed as an algorithm for creating java.security.MessageDigest instances.
If you are specifying a security provider with
setProvider(Provider)
orsetProviderName(String)
, this algorithm should be supported by your specified provider.If you are not specifying a provider, you will be able to use those algorithms provided by the default security provider of your JVM vendor. For valid names in the Sun JVM, see Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification invalid input: '&' Reference.
- Parameters:
algorithm
- the name of the algorithm to be used.
-
setProviderName
Sets the name of the security provider to be asked for the digest algorithm. This security provider has to be registered beforehand at the JVM security framework.
The provider can also be set with the
setProvider(Provider)
method, in which case it will not be necessary neither registering the provider beforehand, nor calling thissetProviderName(String)
method to specify a provider name.Note that a call to
setProvider(Provider)
overrides any value set by this method.If no provider name / provider is explicitly set, the default JVM provider will be used.
- Parameters:
providerName
- the name of the security provider to be asked for the digest algorithm.- Since:
- 1.3
-
setProvider
Sets the security provider to be asked for the digest algorithm. The provider does not have to be registered at the security infrastructure beforehand, and its being used here will not result in it being registered.
If this method is called, calling
setProviderName(String)
becomes unnecessary.If no provider name / provider is explicitly set, the default JVM provider will be used.
- Parameters:
provider
- the provider to be asked for the chosen algorithm- Since:
- 1.3
-
digest
public byte[] digest(byte[] binary) Creates a digest.- Parameters:
binary
- the byte array to be digested.- Returns:
- the resulting digest.
