Answer

/*from  w ww . java2s. c o  m*/
import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;

public class Main {

    public static String md5(String data) {
        try {
            // Create MD5 Hash
            MessageDigest digest = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
            digest.update(data.getBytes());
            byte messageDigest[] = digest.digest();

            // Create Hex String
            StringBuffer hexString = new StringBuffer();
            for(int i = 0; i < messageDigest.length; i++) {
                String h = Integer.toHexString(0xFF & messageDigest[i]);
                while (h.length() < 2) {
                    h = "0" + h;
                }

                hexString.append(h);
            }

            return hexString.toString();
        } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
            return "";
        }
    }
}
