computeChecksumForBytes

fnstring computeChecksumForBytes(glib.types.ChecksumType checksumType, glib.bytes.Bytes data)

Computes the checksum for a binary data. This is a convenience wrapper for [glib.checksum.Checksum.new_], [glib.checksum.Checksum.getString] and [glib.checksum.Checksum.free].

The hexadecimal string returned will be in lower case.

Parameters

checksumTypea #GChecksumType
databinary blob to compute the digest of

Returns

the digest of the binary data as a

string in hexadecimal, or null if [glib.checksum.Checksum.new_] fails for checksum_type. The returned string should be freed with [glib.global.gfree] when done using it.
