      net.rim.device.api.crypto.MD2Digest

All Implemented Interfaces:

Digest

public final class MD2Digest
extends AbstractDigest
implements Digest

The MD2Digest class implements the Message Digest 2 (MD2) hash algorithm.

Note: the MD2 digest is considered weak, and should not be considered for new applications. It is provided for backwards compatibility.

MD2 is defined in RFC 1319.
