# bson_md5_t

## BSON MD5 Abstraction

## Synopsis

    typedef struct
    {
       uint32_t count[2]; /* message length in bits, lsw first */
       uint32_t abcd[4];  /* digest buffer */
       uint8_t  buf[64];  /* accumulate block */
    } bson_md5_t;

## Description

bson_md5_t encapsulates an implementation of the MD5 algorithm. This is used in OID generation for the MD5(hostname) bytes. It is also used by some libraries such as the MongoDB C driver.
