Hello, for some applications I need to safe and resume the state of a MessageDigest implementation (SHA1 and others). I wonder if there has been any discussion about exporting states from Digesters or Cipher Streams?
For MD5 there is a implementation which supports this, but of course I would prefer JCE provider (especially if I can get a speed up with intrinsics) https://code.google.com/p/project-penny/wiki/RecMD5 I can imagine first a getter/setter for the state, but also (with help of clone) using the digest() method could be possible (at least for some digest algorithms). Greetings Bernd
