MD5 Hash a String (such as a password string)

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to MD5 hash a string to get MD5 hash in hex encoded string representation. (The MD5 hash is 16 bytes, and therefore a hex encoded MD5 hash would be 32 chars.) C#

string password = "myPassword";

Chilkat.Crypt2 crypt = new Chilkat.Crypt2();
crypt.HashAlgorithm = "md5";
crypt.EncodingMode = "hex";
string md5Hex = crypt.HashStringENC(password);
Debug.WriteLine("MD5 hash (as a hex string) = " + md5Hex);

// The hex string will be uppercase.  Your application
// can easily convert it to lowercase if desired via non-Chilkat means.
