## NAME
       EVP_MD-MDC2 - The MDC2 EVP_MD implementation

## DESCRIPTION
       Support for computing MDC2 digests through the **EVP**___**MD** API.

### Identity
       This implementation is only available with the legacy provider, and is identified with the
       name "MDC2".

### Gettable Parameters
       This implementation supports the common gettable parameters described in **EVP**___**[MD-common**(7)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/MD-common/7/markdown).

### Settable Context Parameters
       This implementation supports the following **OSSL**___**[PARAM**(3)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/PARAM/3/markdown) entries, settable for an **EVP**___**MD**___**CTX**
       with **EVP**___**MD**___**CTX**___**set**___**[params**(3)](https://www.chedong.com/phpMan.php/man/params/3/markdown):

       "pad-type" (**OSSL**___**DIGEST**___**PARAM**___**PAD**___**TYPE**) <unsigned integer>
           Sets the padding type to be used.  Normally the final MDC2 block is padded with zeros.
           If the pad type is set to 2 then the final block is padded with 0x80 followed by zeros.
