How to do CRC32 hashing on a string in objective C

as per title, i couldnt find another tutorial on this...

i found a piece of code开发者_Python百科 here: http://classroomm.com/objective-c/index.php?action=printpage;topic=2891.0

but it is giving me alot of warnings and doesnt really know how to use it.

Any other solution?

Just use crc32() function, it's simple and straight forward. See this answer for details: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14533955/1760595

I modified http://www.csbruce.com/software/crc32.c slightly, and used UTF8String method to get a pointer to the internal CString representation of NSString. This saves copying. Unfotunately zlib's crc32 implementation needs a buffer length. This one just terminates with the 0 byte at the end of the C-String.

@implementation NSString (crc32)

static unsigned long Crc32_String(const char *string)
{
    static const unsigned long crcTable[256] = {
