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.) Xbase++

LOCAL cPassword
LOCAL oCrypt
LOCAL cMd5Hex

cPassword := "myPassword"

oCrypt := CreateObject("Chilkat.Crypt2")
oCrypt:HashAlgorithm := "md5"
oCrypt:EncodingMode := "hex"
cMd5Hex := oCrypt:HashStringENC(cPassword)
? "MD5 hash (as a hex string) = " + cMd5Hex

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