MD5 problems

[Josh G]

Wondering if there's any problems with JDK1.4 / tomcat's MD5 digest? I'm
not getting any exceptions, but I get gobbeldegook instead of and MD5
digest....  Here's a code snippet - am I doing anything wrong?

        String newvalue = "some text";

        MessageDigest md;

        try {
                md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
        } catch (Exception e) {
                this.password = "CaCrMeDi!";//Can't create
                return;
        }

        md.update(newvalue.getBytes());
        md.digest();
        String tmp = md.toString();


Cheers,
-Josh
