DigestUtils: additional utility methods
---------------------------------------
Key: CODEC-139
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-139
Project: Commons Codec
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Sebastien Dubois
Priority: Trivial
Attachments: DigestUtils-patch.txt
I've slightly modified the DigestUtils class:
- changed the visibility (protected --> public) of a few methods: these methods
are generally useful if one just wants to get a MessageDigest instance for a
given algorithm
- added two 'updateDigest' methods which can be used to add more data to digest
to the provided MessageDigest. The advantage for the one that accepts a String
argument is that it keeps the same logic as the rest of DigestUtils (uses
getBytesUtf8). The second one which accepts a byte array is there for
consistency
