Hi,

I am trying to use the default MD5 algorithm
provided with JDK1.2 beta3. When I try to
compile, I get the following error

AttributeSet.java:20: JAVAC MESSAGE FILE IS BROKEN:
key=javac.err.constructor.ex
cemption, arguments=java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException, null, null
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");

I also tried using the two argument call for getInstance with the same
result.

Is there anything that needs to be done to see an algorithm
provided by SUN?

Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Parag
