does any one know how to get an md5()-like hash function using
pgcrypto for postgresql 7.3 ? without upgrading to 7.4

Thanks for any input.

SELECT encode(digest(v_password, 'md5'), 'hex');


BTW,

/usr/share/pgsql/contrib/pgcrypto.sql

is the script that defines the encode and digest functions.

thanks hlk, that's exactly what I was looking for. Now I can create a md5() function and do my job!

encode is a native PG string function, it is not defined in pgcrypto.
