Hello, the thing is I found myself in the need for a whirlpool hash(don't ask why).

The only place I could find it was the one from GNU.

To get to the point, this is the code:
Whirlpool wp = new Whirlpool();
 
				String s = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog";
				byte[] b = s.getBytes(Charset.forName("UTF-8"));
				wp.update(b,0,43);
 
				byte[] r = wp.digest();
 
				String str = new String(r,Charset.forName("UTF-8"));
				System.out.println("String:"+str);

And I was hoping for a nice whirlpool hash but got this instead: 
String:<?R??XF
????n?g?Tl??H?po???????	m?
5?F ??
y?QhTM?|?I???

If you need any additional information(I think I posted all that's needed) just ask me, I'm the one that needs help.

Note: do not suggest other algorithms. It's not a security issue. The data which will be used is Whirlpool hashed and I can't loose the data.(Unless, there's a way to unhash whirlpool..)
