Using MD5 hash on a string in cocoa? [duplicate]

Noticed this in the Facebook Connect source code. Looks pretty solid, give it a shot.

#import <CommonCrypto/CommonDigest.h>

+ (NSString*)md5HexDigest:(NSString*)input {

    NSMutableString *ret = [NSMutableString stringWithCapacity:CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH*2];
    for(int i = 0; i<CC_MD5_DIGEST_LENGTH; i++) {
        [ret appendFormat:@"%02x",result[i]];
    }
    return ret;
}
