Documentation
Definition
Following hash algorithms are supported:
- SHA-1
- SHA-256
- SHA-384
- SHA-512
The algorithm MD5 is also defined in the standard but due to the security problems with its strengthen it should not longer be used and therefore it is not listed here.
Use
Calculate a message digest of the XML data which should be signed. See also class CL_ABAP_MESSAGE_DIGEST.
Dependencies
ABAP Kernel and its hash algorithms.
