Calculate a CRC for a block of data
long PtCRC( const char *buffer, int nbytes );
ph
This function generates a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check or CRC on the nbytes of data pointed to by buffer.
We recommend that bitmaps and images have a CRC on the image data and the palette. This CRC is used extensively by phrelay (see the QNX Neutrino Utilities Reference) to cache images. |
You can call PtCRCValue() to calculate a running CRC checksum.
