Hi Arul,
U can use the MessageDigest Class available in the java.security package.
Check out the following code...
private String encrypt(String password) {
byte[] buf = password.getBytes();
MessageDigest algorithm=null;
try {
algorithm = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1");
}catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
algorithm.reset();
byte[] digest1 = algorithm.digest(buf);
return new String(digest1);
}
