How to generate a md5 hash?

[dutche]

Hi, this is my first post here and I'm very very new in 'C'
programming.
And I began to 'translate' my PHP program, that beyond a lot of things
generates a md5 hash, and I must generate a md5 hash in 'C' , but I
cant found it anywhere.
I've readed the crypt.h man page, I read twice the post in
http://groups.google.com.br/group/co...4b37481e4d0b48

But I still dont know how to generate a md5 hash from my string
'testing' for example.

Plz, if anyone can help me I'd be glad

Thanks

The RFC that defines MD5 contains a sample C
implementation.

Did you look at this?

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1321.html

Yes, I've readed the entire RFC, but as I said...I'm very new in 'C'
and I copied the files that is in Appendix.

At this point, everything's fine...but when I try to compile
it...like...I donno how to compile those files togheter.

I tried 'gcc mddriver.c -o mddriver' , and a lot of errors appears to
me :/

I'm posting here cause I tried everything that I can with no results.

Thanks

Please, learn how to ask an intelligent, useful question. Then someone
may help you without wasting posts asking for this and that.

With that said, here is the minimal amount of information needed to
help you:

1) Are you using separate source files? Do you have the MD5
implementation in a separate file or did you copy/paste it into
mddriver.c?
2) What are the errors you get from gcc (please copy/paste, don't
summarize)?
3) What are the relevant source files involved in your project?

At this point, I'd suggest, for simplicity's sake, to simply copy/paste
the MD5 code to the TOP of your mddriver.c source file and place your
int main() function at the bottom of the source file.

And what are we supposed to do, psychically divine what code you are
trying?

First, I created these files:

global.h
md5.h
md5c.c
mddriver.c

Ok, I made it exactly as described but when I try to compile I dont got
any results, I think that I'm doing something wrong when compiling.

I've copied the source of the programs directly from the RFC site, and
the command that I used is: 'gcc mddriver.c -o mddriver'

And the errors I got was...

mddriver.c: In function `MDString':
mddriver.c:106: error: `MD_CTX' undeclared (first use in this function)
mddriver.c:106: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only
once

mddriver.c:208: error: parse error before "context"

I'm using a Slackware Linux 10.1 with gcc-3.3.4-i486-1.

Sorry for the few arguments in the last post.

This newsgroup isn't really for helping you learn to compile C code.
Nonetheless, notice you have multiple source files, but only used one
of them in your compile statement. Try something more like:

gcc -c -v -Wall -I. -omd5.o md5.c
gcc -c -v -Wall -I. -omddriver.o mddriver.c
gcc -omddriver mddriver.o md5.o

That's because the code provided with the RFC has a bug :-)
At approximately line 20 or mddriver.c replace the following line:

#define MD MD5
with
#define MD 5

That's should do the trick.

In the first compile I got errors:
The command:
gcc -c -v -Wall -I. -omd5.o md5c.c

The errors:
