Here’s an implementation of the MD5 algorithm in C++.
Simply copy and paste into a file “md5.h”. Only dependencies are on <string.h> and <stdio.h>.
Originally adapted from the C reference implementation on this page
Tested in Visual Studio 2010.
Sample use:
Main.cpp
#include "md5.h"
int main()
{
MD5 md5 ;
puts( md5.digestString( "HELLO THERE I AM MD5!" ) ) ;
// print the digest for a binary file on disk.
puts( md5.digestFile( "C:\\WINDOWS\\notepad.exe" ) ) ;
return 0;
}
md5.h
