## DESCRIPTION

The **krb5\_digest\_alloc**() function allocatates the *digest* structure.  The structure should be freed with **krb5\_digest\_free**() when it is no longer being used.

**krb5\_digest\_alloc**() returns 0 to indicate success. Otherwise an kerberos code is returned and the pointer that *digest* points to is set to NULL.

**krb5\_digest\_free**() free the structure *digest*.
