;;; Code:

(provide 'md5-dl)			; beware of circular dependency.
(eval-when-compile (require 'md5))	; md5-dl-module.

;;; This file is loaded (from "md5.el") only when md5-dl-module is exists.
(defvar md5-dl-handle (dynamic-link md5-dl-module))

;;; md5-dl-module provides `md5-string'.
(dynamic-call "emacs_md5_init" md5-dl-handle)

(defun md5-region (beg end)
  (md5-string (buffer-substring-no-properties beg end)))

;;; Note that v21 `md5' takes two more args: CODING and NOERROR.
(defun md5 (object &optional beg end)
  "Return the MD5 (a secure message digest algorithm) of an object.
OBJECT is either a string or a buffer.
Optional arguments BEG and END denote buffer positions for computing the
hash of a portion of OBJECT."
