.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Fn EVP_MD_type
and
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_type
return the NID of the OBJECT IDENTIFIER representing the message digest.
For example
.Fn EVP_MD_type EVP_sha512()
returns
.Dv NID_sha512 .
These functions are normally used when setting ASN.1 OIDs.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_MD_size
and
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_size
return the size of the message digest when passed an
.Vt EVP_MD
or an
.Vt EVP_MD_CTX
structure, i.e. the size of the hash.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_MD_block_size
and
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_block_size
return the block size of the message digest when passed an
.Vt EVP_MD
or an
.Vt EVP_MD_CTX
structure.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_MD_flags
returns the
.Fa md
flags.
These are different from the
.Vt EVP_MD_CTX
ones.
See
.Xr EVP_MD_meth_set_flags 3
for more information.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_MD_pkey_type
returns the NID of the public key signing algorithm associated with this
digest.
For example
.Fn EVP_sha512
is associated with RSA so this will return
.Dv NID_sha512WithRSAEncryption .
Since digests and signature algorithms are no longer linked, this
function is only retained for compatibility reasons.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_size ,
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_block_size ,
and
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_type
are implemented as macros.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
.Fn EVP_MD_type ,
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_type ,
and
.Fn EVP_MD_pkey_type
return the NID of the corresponding OBJECT IDENTIFIER or
.Dv NID_undef
if none exists.
.Pp
.Fn EVP_MD_size ,
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_size ,
.Fn EVP_MD_block_size ,
and
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_block_size
return the digest or block size in bytes.

.Fn EVP_MD_size
first appeared in SSLeay 0.6.6,
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_size
and
.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_type
in SSLeay 0.8.0,
.Fn EVP_MD_type

.Fn EVP_MD_CTX_block_size
in SSLeay 0.9.0.
All these functions have been available since
.Ox 2.4 .
