26 * Call the MUtils::Hash::create() function to create an instance of the desired hash function. All Hash functions implement the MUtils::Hash::Hash interface.

49 * \brief This abstract class specifies the generic interface for all support hash algorithms.
51 * In order to compute a hash value (digest) call the the Hash::update() function repeatedly until all input data (i.e. the complete "message") has been processed. Then call the Hash::digest() function to retrieve the final hash value.
53 * All overloads of the Hash::update() function may be called in an interleaved fashion as needed.
55 * This class is **not** thread-safe, i.e. do **not** call the *same* Hash instance from difference threads, unless serialization is ensured (e.g. by means of a Mutex). It is safe, however, to call different *different* Hash instances from difference threads concurrently.
60 virtual ~Hash(void) {};
63 * \brief Process the next chunk of input data
65 * Updates the internal state of the hash function by processing the next chunk of input that. Can be called repeatedly, until until all input data has been processed.
67 * \param data A read-only pointer to the memory buffer holding the input data to be processed.
69 * \param len The length of the input data, in bytes. The `data` parameter must be pointing to a memory buffer that is at least `len` bytes in size.
71 * \return The function returns `true`, if the input data was processed successfully; otherwise it returns `false`.
73 bool update(const quint8
*const data
, const quint32 len
) { return process(data
, len
); }
76 * \brief Process the next chunk of input data
78 * Updates the internal state of the hash function by processing the next chunk of input that. Can be called repeatedly, until until all input data has been processed.
80 * \param data A read-only reference to a QByteArray object holding the input data to be processed. All bytes in the QByteArray object will be processed.
82 * \return The function returns `true`, if the input data was processed successfully; otherwise it returns `false`.
84 bool update(const QByteArray
&data
) { return process(((const quint8
*)data
.constData()), ((quint32
)data
.length())); }
87 * \brief Process the next chunk of input data
89 * Updates the internal state of the hash function by processing the next chunk of input that. Can be called repeatedly, until until all input data has been processed.
91 * \param data A reference to a QFile object. The QFile object must be open and readable. All data from the current file position to the end of the file will be processed.
93 * \return The function returns `true`, if all data in the file was processed successfully; otherwise (e.g. in case of file read errors) it returns `false`.
95 bool update(QFile
&file
);
98 * \brief Retrieve the hash value
100 * This function is used to retrieve the final hash value (digest), after all input data has been processed successfully.
102 * \param bAsHex If set to `true`, the function returns the hash value as a Hexadecimal-encoded ASCII string; if set to `false`, the function returns the hash value as "raw" bytes.
104 * \return The function returns a QByteArray object holding the final hash value (digest). The format depends on the `bAsHex` parameter.

118 * \brief Create instance of a hash function
120 * This function is used to create a new instance of the desired hash function. All Hash functions implement the MUtils::Hash::Hash interface. The caller is responsible for destroying the returned MUtils::Hash::Hash object.
122 * \param hashId Specifies the desired hash function. This must be a valid hash algorithm identifier, as defined in the `Hash.h` header file.
124 * \param key Specifies on optional key that is used to "seed" the hash function. If a key is given, it must be a NULL-terminated string of appropriate length. If set to `NULL`, the optional seeding is skipped.
126 * \return Returns a pointer to a new MUtils::Hash::Hash object that implements the desired hash function. The function throws if an invalid algorithm identifier was specified!
