## Detailed Description

Null hash.

A null hash that conforms to HashTransformation interface

Definition at line 15 of file trunhash.h.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ Update()

void NullHash::Update | ( | const byte * | input,
|  | size_t | length
| ) |  |
| inline virtual

Updates a hash with additional input.

Parameters

  input | the additional input as a buffer
  length | the size of the buffer, in bytes

Implements HashTransformation.

Definition at line 18 of file trunhash.h.

## ◆ DigestSize()

unsigned int NullHash::DigestSize | ( |  | ) | const
| inline virtual

Provides the digest size of the hash.

Returns
  the digest size of the hash.

Implements HashTransformation.

Definition at line 20 of file trunhash.h.

## ◆ TruncatedFinal()

void NullHash::TruncatedFinal | ( | byte * | digest,
|  | size_t | digestSize
| ) |  |
| inline virtual

Computes the hash of the current message.

Parameters

  digest | a pointer to the buffer to receive the hash
  digestSize | the size of the truncated digest, in bytes

TruncatedFinal() call Final() and then copies digestSize bytes to digest. The hash is restarted the hash for the next message.

Precondition
  `COUNTOF(digest) <= DigestSize()` or `COUNTOF(digest) <= HASH::DIGESTSIZE` ensures the output byte buffer is a valid size.

Implements HashTransformation.

Definition at line 22 of file trunhash.h.

## ◆ TruncatedVerify()

bool NullHash::TruncatedVerify | ( | const byte * | digest,
|  | size_t | digestLength
| ) |  |
| inline virtual

Verifies the hash of the current message.

Parameters

  digest | a pointer to the buffer of an existing hash
  digestLength | the size of the truncated hash, in bytes

Returns
  `true` if the existing hash matches the computed hash, `false` otherwise

Exceptions

  InvalidArgument() | if digestLength exceeds DigestSize()

TruncatedVerify() is a truncated version of Verify(). It can operate on a buffer smaller than DigestSize(). However, digestLength cannot exceed DigestSize().

Verify() performs a bitwise compare on the buffers using VerifyBufsEqual(), which is a constant time comparison function. digestLength cannot exceed DigestSize().

TruncatedVerify() restarts the hash for the next message.

Precondition
  `digestLength <= DigestSize()` or `digestLength <= HASH::DIGESTSIZE` ensures the input byte buffer is a valid size.

Reimplemented from HashTransformation.
