public class DigestOutputStream extends FilterOutputStream
To complete the message digest computation, call one of the
 digest methods on the associated message
 digest after your calls to one of this digest output stream's
 write methods.
 
It is possible to turn this stream on or off (see
 on). When it is on, a call to one of the
 write methods results in
 an update on the message digest.  But when it is off, the message
 digest is not updated. The default is for the stream to be on.

| DigestOutputStream(OutputStream stream,
                  MessageDigest digest)Creates a digest output stream, using the specified output stream
 and message digest. | 
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |

| MessageDigest | getMessageDigest()Returns the message digest associated with this stream. | 
| void | on(boolean on)Turns the digest function on or off. | 
| void | setMessageDigest(MessageDigest digest)Associates the specified message digest with this stream. | 
| String | toString()Prints a string representation of this digest output stream and
 its associated message digest object. | 
| void | write(byte[] b,
     int off,
     int len)Updates the message digest (if the digest function is on) using
 the specified subarray, and in any case writes the subarray to
 the output stream. | 
| void | write(int b)Updates the message digest (if the digest function is on) using
 the specified byte, and in any case writes the byte
 to the output stream. |
