MD2, MD4, MD5, MD2_Init, MD2_Update, MD2_Final, MD4_Init, MD4_Update,
MD4_Final, MD5_Init, MD5_Update, MD5_Final - MD2, MD4, and MD5 hash

SYNOPSIS
The following functions have been deprecated since OpenSSL 3.0, and can
be hidden entirely by defining OPENSSL_API_COMPAT with a suitable
version value, see openssl_user_macros(7):
#include <openssl/md2.h>
unsigned char *MD2(const unsigned char *d, unsigned long n, unsigned char *md);
int MD2_Init(MD2_CTX *c);
int MD2_Update(MD2_CTX *c, const unsigned char *data, unsigned long len);
int MD2_Final(unsigned char *md, MD2_CTX *c);

DESCRIPTION
All of the functions described on this page are deprecated.
Applications should instead use EVP_DigestInit_ex(3),
EVP_DigestUpdate(3) and EVP_DigestFinal_ex(3).
MD2, MD4, and MD5 are cryptographic hash functions with a 128 bit
output.
MD5(3) compute the MD2, MD4, and MD5 message digest of
the n bytes at d and place it in md (which must have space for
MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH == MD4_DIGEST_LENGTH == MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes
of output). If md is NULL, the digest is placed in a static array.
The following functions may be used if the message is not completely
stored in memory:
MD2_Init() initializes a MD2_CTX structure.
MD2_Update() can be called repeatedly with chunks of the message to be
hashed (len bytes at data).
MD2_Final() places the message digest in md, which must have space for
MD2_DIGEST_LENGTH == 16 bytes of output, and erases the MD2_CTX.
MD4_Init(), MD4_Update(), MD4_Final(), MD5_Init(), MD5_Update(), and
MD5_Final() are analogous using an MD4_CTX and MD5_CTX structure.
Applications should use the higher level functions EVP_DigestInit(3)
etc. instead of calling the hash functions directly.
NOTE
MD2, MD4, and MD5 are recommended only for compatibility with existing
applications. In new applications, hashes from the SHA-2 or SHA-3
family should be preferred.
RETURN VALUES
MD5(3) return pointers to the hash value.
MD2_Init(), MD2_Update(), MD2_Final(), MD4_Init(), MD4_Update(),
MD4_Final(), MD5_Init(), MD5_Update(), and MD5_Final() return 1 for
success, 0 otherwise.
