NE_STRHASH(3)		      neon API reference		 NE_STRHASH(3)

NAME
       ne_strhash, ne_vstrhash - string	hash interface

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<ne_string.h>

       char *ne_strhash(unsigned int flags, ...);

       char *ne_vstrhash(unsigned int flags, va_list ap);

DESCRIPTION
       The ne_strhash and ne_vstrhash functions	can be used to create hashes.
       The varargs argument list must be const char * strings followed by a
       NULL terminator.	The flags argument must	select exactly one hash
       algorithm from the list below, which can	be optionally bitwise-ORed
       with one	of the formatting option. The hash is calculated for the
       concatenation of	the argument list, without separators.

   Hash	algorithms
       The following hash algorithms are available:

       NE_HASH_MD5
	   MD5

       NE_HASH_SHA256
	   SHA-256 (SHA-2)

       NE_HASH_SHA512
	   SHA-512 (SHA-2)

       NE_HASH_SHA256_256
	   SHA-512/256 (SHA-2)

   Formatting options
       By default, the hash is returned	as a hexadecimal lower-case character
       string. The following formatting	options	are available:

       NE_HASH_COLON
	   colon-separated hex pairs, e.g.  "aa:11:22..."

       NE_HASH_SPACE
	   space-separated hex pairs, e.g.  "aa	11 22..."

RETURN VALUE
       The return value	is the ASCII hexadecimal representation	of the hash as
       a malloc-allocated, NUL-terminated string, or NULL if the hash cannot
       be created. The string length is	determined by the hash algorithm (and
       formatting options used). Support for hash algorithms is	specific to
       the SSL toolkit with which neon is compiled. Some systems will further
       restrict	hash availability at runtime, e.g. due to FIPS mode.
