Re: Are there any ready to use MD5 C-function in Linux?

[Abby]

the sources of the openssl crypto library contain a nice md5 implementation in C.
And other crypto oder hash algorithms as well.

http://www.openssl.org/source/

I use the following code, but it doesn't work.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <openssl/md5.h>

int main(){

char password[20] = "password";
MD5_CTX context;
int i;
unsigned char digest[16];
unsigned int len = strlen (password);

MD5_Init(&context);
MD5_Update (&context, password, len);
MD5_Final(digest, &context);

printf ("MD5(\"%s\") = ", password);
for (i = 0; i < 16; i++) {
printf ("%02x", digest);
}
printf ("\n");
return 0;
}


When I compiled this code, it generate error said
[Linker error] undefined reference to `_MD5_Init'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `_MD5_Update'
[Linker error] undefined reference to `_MD5_Final'

I'm not sure if I'm doing the right way. Please recommend.

It's probably the way you are compiling that is not correct. You are
probably not linking to the openssl library correctly...

With gcc, I have so that I just need to do
gcc ...... -lcrypto
to link to the openssl library.
