Re: [gentoo-user] Java error

    Andrew,

    byte[] yourDigest = ...;
    String  yourDigestAsString = new String( yourDigest );

    Anyway, discussing about the power of a language based on this question is a nonsense and really off track.

    Regards
    Jose

   From the java.security.MessageDigest javadoc:

MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA");

try {
    md.update(toChapter1);
    MessageDigest tc1 = md.clone();
    byte[] toChapter1Digest = tc1.digest();
    md.update(toChapter2);
    ...etc.
} catch (CloneNotSupportedException cnse) {
    throw new DigestException("couldn't make digest of partial content");
}

   I think you'd be very surprised about all the thing Java can do.

Ha ha. I requested not byte array, but STRING! Try to convert this array
to string and you will see that this is not so easy :)

Best regards,
Andrew.
