    Hi Folks,

    I need to generate checksum for an array of data. Its stored in QByteArray, and as I googled, I found the qChecksum method, but I couldnot figure out, how should I set the parameters for CRC, like:

    • applied algorithm
    • seed
    • polinome
    • etc...

    can anybody explain me, how I can use this method, or is there any alternative Qt solution for CRC generation?

    Regards,
    Norbert

      There are no more Parameters to set in qChecksum see Documentation:

      quint16 qChecksum(const char * data, uint len)

      Returns the CRC-16 checksum of the first len bytes of data.

      The checksum is independent of the byte order (endianness).

      **Note: This function is a 16-bit cache conserving (16 entry table) implementation of the CRC-16-CCITT algorithm.
      **

      But maybe you can use QCryptographicHash Class

      Currently MD4, MD5, SHA-1, SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 are supported.

        Hi,

        I read the description of the method, but you can check for example this bug report:
        https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-8595

        In order to generate CRC, you need (you can set) to adjust more parameter as the input data.

        Regards,
        Norbert
