- Constructor Detail
  - MD4
```
public MD4()
```
    Creates an uninitialized instance of an MD4 digest.
  - MD4
```
public MD4(boolean randomize)
    throws CryptException
```
    Creates a new MD4 digest that may optionally be initialized with random data.
    
    Parameters:
    
    randomize - True to randomize initial state of digest, false otherwise.
    
    Throws:
    
    CryptException - if the algorithm is not available from any provider or the provider is not available in the environment
  - MD4
```
public MD4(byte[] salt)
    throws CryptException
```
    Creates a new MD4 digest and initializes it with the given salt.
    
    Parameters:
    
    salt - Salt data used to initialize digest computation.
    
    Throws:
    
    CryptException - if the algorithm is not available from any provider or the provider is not available in the environment
