EVP_ripemd160

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.
