Function compute_checksum_for_data

Source
pub fn compute_checksum_for_data(
    checksum_type: ChecksumType,
    data: &[u8],
) -> Option<GString>
Expand description

Computes the checksum for a binary @data of @length. This is a convenience wrapper for g_checksum_new(), g_checksum_get_string() and g_checksum_free().

The hexadecimal string returned will be in lower case.

§checksum_type

a #GChecksumType

§data

binary blob to compute the digest of

§Returns

the digest of the binary data as a string in hexadecimal, or None if g_checksum_new() fails for @checksum_type. The returned string should be freed with g_free() when done using it.
