Struct Sha256

#[non_exhaustive]
pub struct Sha256;

Available on crate feature unstable only.

A SHA implementation struct.

This struct is generated by the macro and represents a specific SHA hashing algorithm (e.g., SHA-256, SHA-1). It manages the context and state required for processing data using the selected hashing algorithm.

The struct provides various functionalities such as initializing the hashing process, updating the internal state with new data, and finalizing the hashing operation to generate the final digest.

Trait Implementations

impl ShaAlgorithm for Sha256

const ALGORITHM: &'static str = "Sha256"

Constant containing the name of the algorithm as a string.

const CHUNK_LENGTH: usize = 64usize

The length of the chunk that the algorithm processes at a time.

const DIGEST_LENGTH: usize = 32usize

The length of the resulting digest produced by the algorithm.
