CODEC-224 Add methods to DigestUtils to generate hex from MessageDigests et al. This PR adds methods to DigestUtils to make it easy to generate hexadecimal strings from: - MessageDigest, - DigestInputStream, - DigestOutputStream. If the underlying digest supports ```clone()```, a clone is created before calling ```MessageDigest::digest``` to avoid resetting the state. If this cannot be done, the original digest is used. [Although clone is optional for MessageDigests, it seems to be almost universally supported (e.g. both the Sun and the IBM providers implement clone for their concrete digests) ] Signed-off-by: Simon Spero <sesunc...@gmail.com> You can merge this pull request into a Git repository by running: $ git pull https://github.com/sesuncedu/commons-codec CODEC-224 Alternatively you can review and apply these changes as the patch at: https://github.com/apache/commons-codec/pull/7.patch To close this pull request, make a commit to your master/trunk branch with (at least) the following in the commit message: This closes #7 ---- commit e83cea6d26c0a74c4dcca8bc3e04f8ca7a1593b7 Author: Simon Spero <sesunc...@gmail.com> Date: 2017-07-04T20:15:28Z Add methods to DigestUtils to generate a hexadecimal string from a MessageDigest, a DigestInputStream, or a DigestOutputStream.
