- =head1 NAME
-
- MD5 - Perl interface to the MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm
-
- =head1 SYNOPSIS
-
- use MD5;
-
- $context = new MD5;
- $context->reset();
-
- $context->add(LIST);
- $context->addfile(HANDLE);
-
- $digest = $context->digest();
- $string = $context->hexdigest();
-
- $digest = MD5->hash(SCALAR);
- $string = MD5->hexhash(SCALAR);
-
- =head1 DESCRIPTION
-
- The C<MD5> module is B<depreciated>. Use C<Digest::MD5> instead.
-
- The current C<MD5> module is just a wrapper around the C<Digest::MD5>
- module. It is provided so that legacy code that rely on the old
- interface still work and get the speed benefit of the new module.
-
- In addition to the methods provided for C<Digest::MD5> objects, this
- module provide the class methods MD5->hash() and MD5->hexhash() that
- basically do the same as the md5() and md5_hex() functions provided by
- C<Digest::MD5>.
