Documentation

The Message Digest Type provides support for an active message digest primitive.

Usage

(import message-digest-type)

Common Argument Definitions

RESULT-FORM is a message-digest-result-form, one of:

'blob
the result bytes as a blob.
'u8vector
the result bytes as a u8vector.
'hex-string 'hex 'hexstring
the result bytes encoded as a string of lower-case hexadecimal digits.
'string 'byte-string
DEPRECATED - the result bytes as a string; these are raw bytes, not necessarily characters!

DIGEST is a message-digest.

ENDIAN is one of 'big-endian, 'little-endian.

SOURCE is a Scheme object.

The buffer argument for the update phase is translated as:

string
buffer is SOURCE.
blob
buffer is SOURCE.
srfi-4-vector
buffer from (...vector->blob/shared SOURCE).
procedure
updates with buffer from (procedure) until #f.
input-port
like procedure above but from ((message-digest-chunk-read-maker) SOURCE).
pointer
buffer is SOURCE, thru the digest primitive raw-update usually.
*
buffer from (message-digest-chunk-converter SOURCE).

Should none of the above interpretations be available then an error is signaled.

A byte-source is one of string, blob, or srfi-4-vector.

A message-digest-result-type is (or blob string u8vector)

Initialized here means the intialization phase is completed.

message-digest-result-form

[parameter] (message-digest-result-form [RESULT-FORM]) -> symbol

The initial RESULT-FORM value is 'hex-string.

A RESULT-FORM of #f resets to the initial value.

reset-message-digest!

[procedure] (reset-message-digest! DIGEST) -> message-digest

Returns the re-initialized DIGEST.

Re-use of the backing objects lowers allocations.

setup-message-digest

[procedure] (setup-message-digest PRIM [CTX]) -> message-digest

Returns a new, initialized, message-digest for the default or supplied message-digest-primitive-context CTX.

initialized-message-digest

[procedure] (initialized-message-digest OBJ) -> message-digest

Operation when OBJ is a

message-digest-primitive
setup-message-digest
message-digest
reset-message-digest!

ensure-message-digest-buffer!

[procedure] (ensure-message-digest-buffer! DIGEST SIZE)

Ensure the DIGEST has a buffer of at least SIZE bytes.

finalize-message-digest

[procedure] (finalize-message-digest DIGEST [RESULT-FORM]) -> message-digest-result-type

Finalize the DIGEST and return the result in the RESULT-FORM.

RESULT-FORM
message-digest-result-form ; default (message-digest-result-form).

Finalize here means the finalization phase is completed. The DIGEST is not in a useful state.

finalize-message-digest!

[procedure] (finalize-message-digest! DIGEST BUFFER) -> message-digest-result-type

Finalize the DIGEST and return the result in the BUFFER.

The BUFFER must be a string, blob, or u8vector of sufficient size; checked at runtime. Does not perform any initialization of the BUFFER.

The result starts at the beginning of the BUFFER, and runs for (message-digest-primitive-digest-length (message-digest-algorithm DIGEST)) bytes. Result is binary only.

Finalize here means the finalization phase is completed. The DIGEST is not in a useful state.

message-digest?

[procedure] (message-digest? OBJ) --> boolean
[procedure] (check-message-digest LOC OBJ [NAM])
[procedure] (error-message-digest LOC OBJ [NAM])

message-digest-algorithm

[procedure] (message-digest-algorithm DIGEST) --> message-digest-primitive

Returns the message-digest algorithm object representation used by this DIGEST.

Mostly for use when developing an update operation.

message-digest-context

[procedure] (message-digest-context DIGEST) --> message-digest-primitive-context

Returns the message-digest algorithm object opaque-data object used by this DIGEST.

Mostly for use when developing an update operation.

Requirements
