Java MessageDigest result does not stay constant
- by user344146
I've got this function for encrypting passwords in Java, but somehow when I call
MessageDigest, it returns a different result every time even though I call it with the same password. I wonder if I am initializing it wrong somehow.
public String encrypt (String password) {
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1");
md.reset();
md.update(password.getBytes(Charset.forName("utf-8")),0,password.length());
String res = md.digest().toString();
}
