    Creates a new instance of PooledStandardStringDigester.
- Method Detail
  - setConfig
```
public void setConfig(DigesterConfig config)
```
    Sets a DigesterConfig or StringDigesterConfig object for the digester. If this config object is set, it will be asked values for:
    - Algorithm
    - Security Provider (or provider name)
    - Salt size
    - Hashing iterations
    - Salt generator
    - Use of Unicode normalization mechanisms (only StringDigesterConfig)
    - Output type (base64, hexadecimal) (only StringDigesterConfig)
    The non-null values it returns will override the default ones, and will be overriden by any values specified with a setX method.
    Parameters:
    
    config - the DigesterConfig object to be used as the source for configuration parameters.
  - setAlgorithm
```
public void setAlgorithm(java.lang.String algorithm)
```
    Sets the algorithm to be used for digesting, like MD5 or SHA-1.
    
    This algorithm has to be supported by your security infrastructure, and it should be allowed as an algorithm for creating java.security.MessageDigest instances.
    
    If you are specifying a security provider with setProvider(Provider) or setProviderName(String), this algorithm should be supported by your specified provider.
    
    If you are not specifying a provider, you will be able to use those algorithms provided by the default security provider of your JVM vendor. For valid names in the Sun JVM, see Java Cryptography Architecture API Specification & Reference.
    
    Parameters:
    
    algorithm - the name of the algorithm to be used.
  - setSaltSizeBytes
```
public void setSaltSizeBytes(int saltSizeBytes)
```
    Sets the size of the salt to be used to compute the digest. This mechanism is explained in PKCS #5: Password-Based Cryptography Standard.
    
    If salt size is set to zero, then no salt will be used.
    
    Parameters:
    
    saltSizeBytes - the size of the salt to be used, in bytes.
  - setIterations
```
public void setIterations(int iterations)
```
    Set the number of times the hash function will be applied recursively.
    The hash function will be applied to its own results as many times as specified: h(h(...h(x)...))
    
    This mechanism is explained in PKCS #5: Password-Based Cryptography Standard.
    
    Parameters:
    
    iterations - the number of iterations.
  - setSaltGenerator
```
public void setSaltGenerator(SaltGenerator saltGenerator)
```
    Sets the salt generator to be used. If no salt generator is specified, an instance of RandomSaltGenerator will be used.
    
    Parameters:
    
    saltGenerator - the salt generator to be used.
  - setProviderName
```
public void setProviderName(java.lang.String providerName)
```
    Sets the name of the security provider to be asked for the digest algorithm. This security provider has to be registered beforehand at the JVM security framework.
    
    The provider can also be set with the setProvider(Provider) method, in which case it will not be necessary neither registering the provider beforehand, nor calling this setProviderName(String) method to specify a provider name.
    
    Note that a call to setProvider(Provider) overrides any value set by this method.
    
    If no provider name / provider is explicitly set, the default JVM provider will be used.
    
    Parameters:
    
    providerName - the name of the security provider to be asked for the digest algorithm.
  - setProvider
```
public void setProvider(java.security.Provider provider)
```
    Sets the security provider to be asked for the digest algorithm. The provider does not have to be registered at the security infrastructure beforehand, and its being used here will not result in its being registered.
    
    If this method is called, calling setProviderName(String) becomes unnecessary.
    
    If no provider name / provider is explicitly set, the default JVM provider will be used.
    
    Parameters:
    
    provider - the provider to be asked for the chosen algorithm
  - setInvertPositionOfSaltInMessageBeforeDigesting
```
public void setInvertPositionOfSaltInMessageBeforeDigesting(boolean invertPositionOfSaltInMessageBeforeDigesting)
```
    Whether the salt bytes are to be appended after the message ones before performing the digest operation on the whole. The default behaviour is to insert those bytes before the message bytes, but setting this configuration item to true allows compatibility with some external systems and specifications (e.g. LDAP {SSHA}).
    
    If this parameter is not explicitly set, the default behaviour (insertion of salt before message) will be applied.
    
    Parameters:
    
    invertPositionOfSaltInMessageBeforeDigesting - whether salt will be appended after the message before applying the digest operation on the whole, instead of inserted before it (which is the default).
  - setInvertPositionOfPlainSaltInEncryptionResults
```
public void setInvertPositionOfPlainSaltInEncryptionResults(boolean invertPositionOfPlainSaltInEncryptionResults)
```
    Whether the plain (not hashed) salt bytes are to be appended after the digest operation result bytes. The default behaviour is to insert them before the digest result, but setting this configuration item to true allows compatibility with some external systems and specifications (e.g. LDAP {SSHA}).
    
    If this parameter is not explicitly set, the default behaviour (insertion of plain salt before digest result) will be applied.
    
    Parameters:
    
    invertPositionOfPlainSaltInEncryptionResults - whether plain salt will be appended after the digest operation result instead of inserted before it (which is the default).
    
    Since:
    
    1.7
  - setUseLenientSaltSizeCheck
```
public void setUseLenientSaltSizeCheck(boolean useLenientSaltSizeCheck)
```
    Whether digest matching operations will allow matching digests with a salt size different to the one configured in the "saltSizeBytes" property. This is possible because digest algorithms will produce a fixed-size result, so the remaining bytes from the hashed input will be considered salt.
    
    This will allow the digester to match digests produced in environments which do not establish a fixed salt size as standard (for example, SSHA password encryption in LDAP systems).
    
    The value of this property will not affect the creation of digests, which will always have a salt of the size established by the "saltSizeBytes" property. It will only affect digest matching.
    
    Setting this property to true is not compatible with SaltGenerator implementations which return false for their SaltGenerator.includePlainSaltInEncryptionResults() property.
    
    Also, be aware that some algorithms or algorithm providers might not support knowing the size of the digests beforehand, which is also incompatible with a lenient behaviour.
    
    If this parameter is not explicitly set, the default behaviour (NOT lenient) will be applied.
    
    Parameters:
    
    useLenientSaltSizeCheck - whether the digester will allow matching of digests with different salt sizes than established or not (default is false).
  - setUnicodeNormalizationIgnored
```
public void setUnicodeNormalizationIgnored(boolean unicodeNormalizationIgnored)
```
    Sets whether the unicode text normalization step should be ignored.
    
    The Java Virtual Machine internally handles all Strings as UNICODE. When digesting or matching digests in jasypt, these Strings are first normalized to its NFC form so that digest matching is not affected by the specific form in which the messages where input.
    
    It is normally safe (and recommended) to leave this parameter set to its default FALSE value (and thus DO perform normalization operations). But in some specific cases in which issues with legacy software could arise, it might be useful to set this to TRUE.
    
    For more information on unicode text normalization, see this issue of Core Java Technologies Tech Tips.
    
    Parameters:
    
    unicodeNormalizationIgnored - whether the unicode text normalization step should be ignored or not.
  - setStringOutputType
```
public void setStringOutputType(java.lang.String stringOutputType)
```
    Sets the the form in which String output will be encoded. Available encoding types are:
    - base64 (default)
    - hexadecimal
    If not set, null will be returned.
    Parameters:
    
    stringOutputType - the string output type.
  - setPrefix
```
public void setPrefix(java.lang.String prefix)
```
    Sets the prefix to be added at the beginning of encryption results, and also to be expected at the beginning of plain messages provided for matching operations (raising an EncryptionOperationNotPossibleException if not).
    
    By default, no prefix will be added to encryption results.
    
    Parameters:
    
    prefix - the prefix to be set
  - setSuffix
```
public void setSuffix(java.lang.String suffix)
```
    Sets the suffix to be added at the end of encryption results, and also to be expected at the end of plain messages provided for matching operations (raising an EncryptionOperationNotPossibleException if not).
    
    By default, no suffix will be added to encryption results.
    
    Parameters:
    
    suffix - the suffix to be set
  - setPoolSize
```
public void setPoolSize(int poolSize)
```
    Sets the size of the pool of digesters to be created.
    
    This parameter is required.
    
    Parameters:
    
    poolSize - size of the pool
  - isInitialized
```
public boolean isInitialized()
```
    Returns true if the digester has already been initialized, false if not.
    Initialization happens:
    - When initialize is called.
    - When digest or matches are called for the first time, if initialize has not been called before.
    Once a digester has been initialized, trying to change its configuration (algorithm, provider, salt size, iterations or salt generator) will result in an AlreadyInitializedException being thrown.
    Returns:
    
    true if the digester has already been initialized, false if not.
  - initialize
```
public void initialize()
```
    Initialize the digester.
    
    This operation will consist in determining the actual configuration values to be used, and then initializing the digester with them.
    These values are decided by applying the following priorities:
    1. First, the default values are considered.
    2. Then, if a DigesterConfig object has been set with setConfig, the non-null values returned by its getX methods override the default values.
    3. Finally, if the corresponding setX method has been called on the digester itself for any of the configuration parameters, the values set by these calls override all of the above.
    Once a digester has been initialized, trying to change its configuration will result in an AlreadyInitializedException being thrown.
    Throws:
    
    EncryptionInitializationException - if initialization could not be correctly done (for example, if the digest algorithm chosen cannot be used).
  - digest
```
public java.lang.String digest(java.lang.String message)
```
    Performs a digest operation on a String message.
    
    The steps taken for creating the digest are:
    1. The String message is converted to a byte array.
    2. A salt of the specified size is generated (see SaltGenerator).
    3. The salt bytes are added to the message.
    4. The hash function is applied to the salt and message altogether, and then to the results of the function itself, as many times as specified (iterations).
    5. If specified by the salt generator (see SaltGenerator.includePlainSaltInEncryptionResults()), the undigested salt and the final result of the hash function are concatenated and returned as a result.
    6. The result of the concatenation is encoded in BASE64 (default) or HEXADECIMAL and returned as an ASCII String.
    Put schematically in bytes:
    - DIGEST = |S|..(ssb)..|S|X|X|X|...|X|
      
      S: salt bytes (plain, not digested). (OPTIONAL).
      
      ssb: salt size in bytes.
      
      X: bytes resulting from hashing (see below).
    - |X|X|X|...|X| = H(H(H(..(it)..H(Z|Z|Z|...|Z|))))
      
      H: Hash function (algorithm).
      
      it: Number of iterations.
      
      Z: Input for hashing (see below).
    - |Z|Z|Z|...|Z| = |S|..(ssb)..|S|M|M|M...|M|
      
      S: salt bytes (plain, not digested).
      
      ssb: salt size in bytes.
      
      M: message bytes.
    If a random salt generator is used, two digests created for the same message will always be different (except in the case of random salt coincidence). Because of this, in this case the result of the digest method will contain both the undigested salt and the digest of the (salt + message), so that another digest operation can be performed with the same salt on a different message to check if both messages match (all of which will be managed automatically by the matches method).
    Specified by:
    
    digest in interface StringDigester
    
    Parameters:
    
    message - the String to be digested
    
    Returns:
    
    the digest result
    
    Throws:
    
    EncryptionOperationNotPossibleException - if the digest operation fails, ommitting any further information about the cause for security reasons.
    
    EncryptionInitializationException - if initialization could not be correctly done (for example, if the digest algorithm chosen cannot be used).
  - matches
```
public boolean matches(java.lang.String message,
                       java.lang.String digest)
```
    Checks a message against a given digest.
    
    This method tells whether a message corresponds to a specific digest or not by getting the salt with which the digest was created and applying it to a digest operation performed on the message. If new and existing digest match, the message is said to match the digest.
    
    This method will be used, for instance, for password checking in authentication processes.
    
    A null message will only match a null digest.
    
    Specified by:
    
    matches in interface StringDigester
    
    Parameters:
    
    message - the message to be compared to the digest.
    
    digest - the digest.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the specified message matches the digest, false if not.
    
    Throws:
    
    EncryptionOperationNotPossibleException - if the digest matching operation fails, ommitting any further information about the cause for security reasons.
    
    EncryptionInitializationException - if initialization could not be correctly done (for example, if the digest algorithm chosen cannot be used).
