Values for headers in cbf_read_file

MSG_DIGEST Check that the digest of the binary section matches any header value. If the digests do not match, the call will return CBF_FORMAT. The evaluation and comparison is delayed (a `lazy' evaluation) to ensure maximal processing efficiency. If an immediate evaluation is desired, see MSG_DIGESTNOW below.
MSG_DIGESTNOW Check that the digest of the binary section matches any header value. If the digests do not match, the call will return CBF_FORMAT. This evaluation and comparison is performed during initial parsing of the section to ensure timely error reporting at the expense of processing efficiency. If a more efficient delayed (`lazy') evaluation is desired, see MSG_DIGEST above.
MSG_NODIGEST Do not check the digest (default).
