-EVP_MD_CTX_create() allocates, initializes and returns a digest contet.
+EVP_MD_CTX_create() allocates, initializes and returns a digest context.
EVP_DigestInit_ex() sets up digest context B<ctx> to use a digest

+function. B<type> will typically be supplied by a function such as EVP_sha1().

EVP_MD_CTX_copy() is similar to EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() except the destination
B<out> does not have to be initialized.
EVP_MD_pkey_type() returns the NID of the public key signing algorithm associated
with this digest. For example EVP_sha1() is associated with RSA so this will

EVP_MD_type(), EVP_MD_pkey_type() and EVP_MD_type() return the NID of the

+The other digest algorithms are still in common use.
For most applications the B<impl> parameter to EVP_DigestInit_ex() will be

+applications should use EVP_DigestInit_ex(), EVP_DigestFinal_ex() and
EVP_MD_CTX_copy_ex() because they can efficiently reuse a digest context
instead of initializing and cleaning it up on each call and allow non default
implementations of digests to be specified.

+If digest contexts are not cleaned up after use
+memory leaks will occur.
+
+Stack allocation of EVP_MD_CTX structures is common, for example:
+
+ EVP_MD_CTX mctx;
+ EVP_MD_CTX_init(&mctx);
+
+This will cause binary compatibility issues if the size of EVP_MD_CTX
+structure changes (this will only happen with a major release of OpenSSL).
+Applications wishing to avoid this should use EVP_MD_CTX_create() instead:
+
+ EVP_MD_CTX *mctx;
+ mctx = EVP_MD_CTX_create();
