Member Function Documentation

QCryptographicHash::QCryptographicHash(Algorithm method)

Constructs an object that can be used to create a cryptographic hash from data using method.

QCryptographicHash::~QCryptographicHash()

Destroys the object.

void QCryptographicHash::addData(const char * data, int length)

Adds the first length chars of data to the cryptographic hash.

void QCryptographicHash::addData(const QByteArray & data)

This function overloads addData().

[static] QByteArray QCryptographicHash::hash(const QByteArray & data, Algorithm method)

Returns the hash of data using method.

void QCryptographicHash::reset()

Resets the object.

QByteArray QCryptographicHash::result() const

Returns the final hash value.

See also QByteArray::toHex().
