This is a mirror of my library hosted athttps://create.stephan-brumme.com/hash-library/
In a nutshell:
- computes CRC32, MD5, SHA1 and SHA256 (most common member of the SHA2 functions), Keccak and its SHA3 sibling
- optional HMAC (keyed-hash message authentication code)
- no external dependencies, small code size
- can work chunk-wise (for example when reading streams block-by-block)
- portable: supports Windows and Linux, tested on Little Endian and Big Endian CPUs
- roughly as fast as Linux core hashing functions
- open source, zlib license
You can find code examples, benchmarks and much more on my websitehttps://create.stephan-brumme.com/hash-library/
This example computes SHA256 hashes but the API is more or less identical for all hash algorithms:
// SHA2 test program#include"sha256.h"#include<iostream>// for std::cout only, not needed for hashing libraryintmain(int,char**){// create a new hashing object SHA256 sha256;// hashing an std::string std::cout <<sha256("Hello World") << std::endl;// => a591a6d40bf420404a011733cfb7b190d62c65bf0bcda32b57b277d9ad9f146e// hashing a buffer of bytesconstchar* buffer ="How are you"; std::cout <<sha256(buffer,11) << std::endl;// => 9c7d5b046878838da72e40ceb3179580958df544b240869b80d0275cc07209cc// or in a streaming fashion (re-use "How are you") SHA256 sha256stream;constchar* url ="create.stephan-brumme.com";// 25 bytesint step =5;for (int i =0; i <25; i += step) sha256stream.add(url + i, step);// add five bytes at a time std::cout << sha256stream.getHash() << std::endl;// => 82aa771f1183c52f973c798c9243a1c73833ea40961c73e55e12430ec77b69f6return0;}
