Hi all,
I needed the CRC32 routine for one of my C programs and managed to find a very very simple C++ class, converted it to C (one reference to be made into pointer) and that was mostly it. Converting it to assembly was a different story though... :eek :eek :boohoo:
The C++ source code link is:
http://www.codeproject.com/cpp/crc32_large.asp
Anyway, long story short, if anyone wants the ASM implementation here it is.
Its NOT optimized in any way whatsoever. It kinda sucks (variables used all over the place, when it could have been done with registers :bdg :bdg ),
but for all the various strings I checked it with, it yielded the same CRC32 for the C version and the ASM version.
So, for now, I would say it works.
P.S.
Its been assembled/tested with POASM 1.00.33 (for masm, not sure if "inc xyz" gets assembled correctly as "inc byte ptr xyz" if xyz is say type BYTE, et al)
Hope it helps,
Cheers,
Shantanu Gadgil

Thanks for sharing a nice bit of programming. You should not be so tough on yourself.

Indeed, a nice routine. I have one question though, is it even possible to use the init, update and final method with a crc32, I found one for all the SHAs and MD5 and i've looked all over the net and i can't find a single crc32 implementation that uses that method.
Thanks, Ehtyar.
Thanks Paul!!! :bg :bg

Umm...maybe the other codes that you found call the
init method (or equivalent) from the
calculate method itself ?
For my understanding the
init sets up the table in a particular sequence.
Some other codes I had found had a pre-initialized table in them!

another method which made by z0mbie.

Found another implementation, with a pre-initialized CRC-Table.

I've written my own too, a few months ago. I use it to crc check png files, so it's extensively tested. It uses a precalculated table, and should run very fast. (however, I haven't done any benchmarks yet)
If you use it, don't forget to call the initialization function ;)

How i use crc module in VB6?
Thanks

I'm not a VB programmer. But probably the only thing you have to do is write your own header file, and make sure the library is linked with your program.
