DigestUtils类

DigestUtils是一个算法工具类，在package org.apache.commons.codec.digest;这个包下。

该类中常用的方法有：

/**
     * Calculates the MD5 digest and returns the value as a 16 element <code>byte[]</code>.
     * 
     * @param data
     *            Data to digest
     * @return MD5 digest
     */
    public static byte[] md5(byte[] data) {
        return getMd5Digest().digest(data);
    }

     * 
     * @param data
     *            Data to digest
     * @return MD5 digest

     * @since 1.4

    }

    }
