Answer 1

This example Get MD5 hash in a few lines of Java has a related example.

I believe you should be able to do

MessageDigest m=MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
m.update(message.getBytes(), 0, message.length());
BigInteger bi = new BigInteger(1,m.digest());

and if you want it printed in the style "d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e" you should be able to do

System.out.println(bi.toString(16));
