Constructor Details

#initialize(bitlen = 256) ⇒ SHA2

call-seq:

Digest::SHA2.new(bitlen = 256) -> digest_obj

Creates a new SHA2 hash object with a given bit length.

Valid bit lengths are 256, 384 and 512.

Instance Method Details

#block_length ⇒ Object

call-seq:

digest_obj.block_length -> Integer

Returns the block length of the digest in bytes.

Digest::SHA256.new.block_length * 8
# => 512
Digest::SHA384.new.block_length * 8
# => 1024
Digest::SHA512.new.block_length * 8
# => 1024

def block_length
  @sha2.block_length
end

#digest_length ⇒ Object

call-seq:

digest_obj.digest_length -> Integer

Returns the length of the hash value of the digest in bytes.

Digest::SHA256.new.digest_length * 8
# => 256
Digest::SHA384.new.digest_length * 8
# => 384
Digest::SHA512.new.digest_length * 8
# => 512

For example, digests produced by Digest::SHA256 will always be 32 bytes (256 bits) in size.
