NAME

       Digest::base - Digest base class

SYNOPSIS

	 package Digest::Foo;
	 use base 'Digest::base';

DESCRIPTION

       The "Digest::base" class provide implementations of the methods "addfile" and "add_bits" in terms of "add", and of the methods "hexdigest"
       and "b64digest" in terms of "digest".

       Digest implementations might want to inherit from this class to get this implementations of the alternative add and digest methods.  A
       minimal subclass needs to implement the following methods by itself:

	   new
	   clone
	   add
	   digest

       The arguments and expected behaviour of these methods are described in Digest.

NAME

       Digest::HMAC - Keyed-Hashing for Message Authentication

SYNOPSIS

	# Functional style
	use Digest::HMAC qw(hmac hmac_hex);
	$digest = hmac($data, $key, &myhash);
	print hmac_hex($data, $key, &myhash);

	# OO style
	use Digest::HMAC;
	$hmac = Digest::HMAC->new($key, "Digest::MyHash");

	$hmac->add($data);
	$hmac->addfile(*FILE);

	$digest = $hmac->digest;
	$digest = $hmac->hexdigest;
	$digest = $hmac->b64digest;

DESCRIPTION

       HMAC is used for message integrity checks between two parties that share a secret key, and works in combination with some other Digest
       algorithm, usually MD5 or SHA-1.  The HMAC mechanism is described in RFC 2104.

       HMAC follow the common "Digest::" interface, but the constructor takes the secret key and the name of some other simple "Digest::" as
       argument.

       The hmac() and hmac_hex() functions and the Digest::HMAC->new() constructor takes an optional $blocksize argument as well.  The HMAC
       algorithm assumes the digester to hash by iterating a basic compression function on blocks of data and the $blocksize should match the
       byte-length of such blocks.

       The default $blocksize is 64 which is suitable for the MD5 and SHA-1 digest functions.  For stronger algorithms the blocksize probably
       needs to be increased.
