EVP_ripemd160 - RIPEMD160 For EVP

 #include <openssl/evp.h>
 const EVP_MD *EVP_ripemd160(void);

RIPEMD-160 is a cryptographic hash function first published in 1996 belonging to the RIPEMD family (RACE Integrity Primitives Evaluation Message Digest). This implementation is only available with the legacy provider.

The RIPEMD-160 algorithm which produces a 160-bit output from a given input.

Developers should be aware of the negative performance implications of calling this function multiple times and should consider using EVP_MD_fetch(3) instead. See "Performance" in crypto(7) for further information.

These functions return a EVP_MD structure that contains the implementation of the message digest. See EVP_MD_meth_new(3) for details of the EVP_MD structure.

ISO/IEC 10118-3:2016 Dedicated Hash-Function 1 (RIPEMD-160).
