NAME

EVP_ripemd160 - RIPEMD160 For EVP


SYNOPSIS

 #include <openssl/evp.h>
 const EVP_MD *EVP_ripemd160(void);


DESCRIPTION

RIPEMD-160 is a cryptographic hash function first published in 1996 belonging to the RIPEMD family (RACE Integrity Primitives Evaluation Message Digest).

EVP_ripemd160()

The RIPEMD-160 algorithm which produces a 160-bit output from a given input.


RETURN VALUES

These functions return a EVP_MD structure that contains the implementation of the symmetric cipher. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_MD structure.


CONFORMING TO
