1 | Digest::SHA version 5.32 |
2 | ======================== | |
3 | ||
4 | Digest::SHA is a complete implementation of the NIST Secure Hash | |
5 | Standard. It gives Perl programmers a convenient way to calculate | |
6 | SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 message digests. | |
7 | The module can handle all types of input, including partial-byte | |
8 | data. | |
9 | ||
10 | Digest::SHA is written in C for speed. If your platform lacks a | |
11 | C compiler, you can install the functionally-equivalent (but much | |
12 | slower) Digest::SHA::PurePerl module. | |
13 | ||
14 | The tests subdirectory (t/*.t) contains an extensive set of SHA | |
15 | vectors compiled from various sources. | |
16 | ||
17 | INSTALLATION | |
18 | ||
19 | To install this module type the following: | |
20 | ||
21 | perl Makefile.PL [ options ] | |
22 | make | |
23 | make test | |
24 | make install | |
25 | ||
26 | The Makefile.PL options are: | |
27 | ||
28 | -t : build a thread-safe version of module | |
29 | -x : exclude support for SHA-384/512 | |
30 | ||
