Carl Chenet added the comment: Hi, Maybe you have some ideas on this patch? I think it could be a nice feature e.g in my app I need to support every hash algorithms available so with optparse module it is possible to write something like : for __hashtype in ('md5', 'sha1', 'sha224','s

[issue7418] hashlib : the names of the different hash algorithms

New submission from Carl Chenet : Hi, The hashlib module could provide a tuple offering the names of the different hash algorithms which are guaranteed to be supported. The expected result: >>> import hashlib >>> hashlib.algorithms ('md5', 'sha1', 'sha224', 'sha256', 'sha384', 'sha512') Here
