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.)
Note
This example is intended for running within a Chilkat.Js embedded JavaScript engine. All Chilkat JavaScript examples require Chilkat
v11.4.0 or greater.
var password = "myPassword";
var crypt = new CkCrypt2();
crypt.HashAlgorithm = "md5";
crypt.EncodingMode = "hex";
var md5Hex = crypt.HashStringENC(password);
console.log("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.
