small bug in catalina docs

in /catalina/docs/JDBCRealm-howto.html, the documentation states:

<h2>Using digested passwords</h2>
<p>To use digested password you need to store them digested.
To achieve this, you will  need to use the same digest strategies that
JDBCrealm uses to store the passwords, inside JDBCRealm there is a static
method with signature <code>final public static String Digest(String
password,String algorithm)</code> this method is provided as a tool to be
used outside JDBCRealm by an application that want to store passwords
readable by JDBCRealm.</p>

there is no such method.
