A wrapper for Java's MD5 class that makes life a little easier.
【MD5|MD5 Hashing in Java,Written by dimport】This class lets you produce an MD5 hashcode for some binary data. It is useful for storing passwords in databases or file systems, or for checking the validity of downloaded files. It also provides an example of the singleton design pattern.
