NAME

SYNOPSIS

These functions do not perform compress/uncompress, but they are used for integrity checks.

#include <librock/target/types.c>
#include <librock/zlibh.h>

librock_z_uLong
librock_z_adler32(librock_z_uLong adler,
                   const librock_z_Bytef *buf,
                   librock_z_uInt len);

Update a running Adler-32 checksum with the bytes buf[0..len-1] and return the updated checksum. If buf is NULL, this function returns the required initial value for the checksum. An Adler-32 checksum is almost as reliable as a CRC32 but can be computed much faster. Usage example:

     librock_z_uLong adler = librock_z_adler32(0L, librock_z_Z_NULL, 0);

     while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) {
       adler = librock_z_adler32(adler, buffer, length);
     }
     if (adler != original_adler) error();

librock_z_uLong
librock_z_crc32(librock_z_uLong crc,
                   const librock_z_Bytef *buf,
                   librock_z_uInt len);

Update a running crc with the bytes buf[0..len-1] and return the updated crc. If buf is NULL, this function returns the required initial value for the crc. Pre- and post-conditioning (one's complement) is performed within this function so it shouldn't be done by the application. This means that the required initial value is 0, but the code below has the recommended initialization.

Note that librock already includes a function librock_CRC32, with a very similar implementation. Since the API is slightly different, they are not replacement compatible.

Usage example:

     librock_z_uLong crc = librock_z_crc32(0L, librock_Z_NULL, 0);

     while (read_buffer(buffer, length) != EOF) {
       crc = librock_z_crc32(crc, buffer, length);
     }
     if (crc != original_crc) error();

Source Code

This software is part of Librock

• Source code which is Open-source, Free (Libre) and free (no cost)
• Namespace limited. All compile-time macros and names visible at link time are prefixed by "librock_". Integrate into your project and expect no name collisions.
• Stable API means new functions get new names so that there is no risk that updating a source file will break existing applications.
• Highly portable, cross-platform, and multithread compatible. Works with many machines, compilers, and operating systems (gcc/MSVC/Windows/Linux/BSD).
