Joomla 3.3 crypting in java, get salt value

I wanted to implement an external login using java, but the password hashing in joomla uses md5 with a salt value to generate the hashed passwords. How can I get the salt values to enable the login via my Java Client?

Especially the Salt values of each User.

Joomla in the latest 3.3.x you are asking about does not use MD5 anymore it uses bcrypt https://stackoverflow.com/a/21315610/6096

The Salt wouldn't be a random value and you should find it in the joomla hash function for hashing the pw.

The salt for each user should be the same.

Look at the pw-hash functionality of joomla.
