[openssl-users] SHA256() to EVP_* ?

[jonetsu]

Hello,

What would be the equivalent of the SHA256() function in the EVP
class of methods ?  EVP_sha256() could be it, although from the
short description in manual page it does not seemingly fit in,
returning a EVP_MD which is, if not mistaken, a env_md_st
structure.

The code I'm adapting to EVP has a first pass of shortening the
key if too long:

    /* Change key if longer than 64 bytes */
    if (klen > HMAC_INT_LEN) {
			SHA256(key, klen, nkey);
			key = nkey;
			klen = SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH;
    }

Before proceeding with the usual SHA256_Init(),
SHA256_Update() (twice), and SHA256_Final.  All of which I have
tested with the corresponding EVP_* methods.  For the use of
SHA256() above, though, I'm puzzled regarding its EVP_*
counterpart.

Suggestions, comments appreciated.

Regards.
