Digest::SHA version 5.93

Digest::SHA is a complete implementation of the NIST Secure Hash Standard. It gives Perl programmers a convenient way to calculate SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, SHA-512/224, and SHA-512/256 message digests. The module can handle all types of input, including partial-byte data.

Digest::SHA is written in C for speed. If your platform lacks a C compiler, you can install the functionally-equivalent (but much slower) Digest::SHA::PurePerl module.

The tests subdirectory (t/*.t) contains an extensive set of SHA vectors compiled from various sources.

INSTALLATION

To install this module type the following:

perl Makefile.PL [ options ]
make
make test
make install

The Makefile.PL options are:

-t : build a thread-safe version of module
-x : exclude support for SHA-384/512

NOTE: Option -t is still allowed but no longer necessary.

DEPENDENCIES

None
