在Real的Java-How-to中有一个使用MessageDigest类的例子。

请查看该页面中使用CRC32和SHA-1的示例。

import java.io.*;
import java.security.MessageDigest;

public class MD5Checksum {

   public static byte[] createChecksum(String filename) throws Exception {
       InputStream fis =  new FileInputStream(filename);

       byte[] buffer = new byte[1024];
       MessageDigest complete = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
       int numRead;

       do {
           numRead = fis.read(buffer);
           if (numRead > 0) {
               complete.update(buffer, 0, numRead);
           }
       } while (numRead != -1);

       fis.close();
       return complete.digest();
   }

   // see this How-to for a faster way to convert
   // a byte array to a HEX string
   public static String getMD5Checksum(String filename) throws Exception {
       byte[] b = createChecksum(filename);
       String result = "";

       for (int i=0; i < b.length; i++) {
           result += Integer.toString( ( b[i] & 0xff ) + 0x100, 16).substring( 1 );
       }
       return result;
   }

   public static void main(String args[]) {
       try {

使用nio2 (Java 7+)，不使用外部库:

byte[] b = Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("/path/to/file"));
byte[] hash = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5").digest(b);

将结果与期望的校验和进行比较:

String expected = "2252290BC44BEAD16AA1BF89948472E8";
String actual = DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary(hash);
System.out.println(expected.equalsIgnoreCase(actual) ? "MATCH" : "NO MATCH");

如果使用ANT进行构建，这非常简单。将以下内容添加到build.xml中:

<checksum file="${jarFile}" todir="${toDir}"/>

其中jarFile是要针对其生成MD5的JAR, toDir是要放置MD5文件的目录。

public static String MD5Hash(String toHash) throws RuntimeException {
   try{
       return String.format("%032x", // produces lower case 32 char wide hexa left-padded with 0
      new BigInteger(1, // handles large POSITIVE numbers 
           MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5").digest(toHash.getBytes())));
   }
   catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
      // do whatever seems relevant
   }
}

从其他答案中提取想法，这里有一个简单的代码，没有第三方依赖关系(或DatatypeConverter，在最新的jdk中更长)，将其生成为与md5sum工具输出兼容的十六进制字符串:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.math.BigInteger;
import java.nio.file.Files;
import java.nio.file.Paths;
import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;
...

static String calculateMD5(String path) throws IOException
{
    try {
        MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
        md.update(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get(path)));
        return String.format("%032x", new BigInteger(1, md.digest())); // hex, padded to 32 chars
    } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException ex)
    {
        throw new RuntimeException(ex); // MD5 is always available so this should be impossible
    }
}
