Expand description

Trait for hash functions with extendable-output (XOF).

Required Associated Types§

Source

type Reader: XofReader

Reader

Required Methods§

Source

fn finalize_xof(self) -> Self::Reader

Retrieve XOF reader and consume hasher instance.

Provided Methods§

Source

fn finalize_xof_into(self, out: &mut [u8])

Finalize XOF and write result into out.

Source

fn digest_xof(input: impl AsRef<[u8]>, output: &mut [u8])
where Self: Default,

Compute hash of data and write it into output.

Source

fn finalize_boxed(self, output_size: usize) -> Box<[u8]>

Retrieve result into a boxed slice of the specified size and consume the hasher.

Box<[u8]> is used instead of Vec<u8> to save stack space, since they have size of 2 and 3 words respectively.

Dyn Compatibility§

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
