Re: Calc MD5 checksum for file?

For encrypt, I think we can use some of the SQL functions now, another way to extend the language.

Cheers

I was thinking the same thing. Granted, the XML-INTO is some nice
functionality.

And I could see a general %encypt() BIF possibly being useful....or at
least better received than the API calls for a certain class of RPG
programmer.

IDK, apparently there's a huge difference between
getthestinkingmd5(myvariable)
and
%getthestinkingmd5(myvariable)

:-)

On the other side, they did add a bunch of xml stuff directly to RPG...

Meh...the functions exist and can be called by an RPGLE program...

Don't see how having them as a BIF would be all that much help.

Strange that hashing functions aren't built into RPG. MD5 (and a ton of
other hashing functions) is built into .NET and can be called with one
line

Jack,
I looked up your code on Code400.
That is exactly the same solution I've used. Correct me if I'm wrong
but
that is almost exactly what Scott Klement's solution looks like.
I was about to post the same thing. Turned it into a service program and
called it MKD5R4. Works well.

Bill

I recently posted an RPG solution I've been using to calculate MD5
checksum for IFS files in the Code400 forums
