Name

GenCrc32.exe - Generate a CRC32 signature

Synopsis

  GenCrc32 [-v | -q | --debug <Level>] -e|-d -o <OutputFile> <InputFile>
​
  GenCrc32 -h
​
  GenCrc32 --version

Description

The GenCrc32 tool generates the CRC32 value when encoding the input file, put the calculated CRC32 value into the output file header, and then put the input file into the output file tail. When decoding the input file, GenCrc32 is used to verify the CRC32 value. If the CRC32 value is valid, the input file, except for CRC32 value, will be written to the output file. If the CRC32 value is not valid, the error message will be displayed and the output file will not be created.

Options

If no options are specified, tool prints usage.

  -h, --help            Show this help message and exit
  --version             Show program's version number and exit
  --debug [DEBUG]       Output DEBUG statements, where DEBUG_LEVEL is 0 (min)
                        - 9 (max)
  -v, --verbose         Print informational statements
  -q, --quiet           Returns the exit code, error messages will be
                        displayed
  -s, --silent          Returns only the exit code; informational and error
                        messages are not displayed
  -e, --encode          Calculate CRC32 value for the input file
  -d, --decode          Verify CRC32 value for the input file
  -o OUTPUT_FILENAME, --output OUTPUT_FILENAME
                        Output file name
  --sfo                 Reserved for future use

Status codes returned

Example

1. Calculate CRC32 value for the input file "file.sec" and write the CRC32

   value and input file into the output file file.crc32.

  GenCrc32 -e -o file.crc32 file.sec

1. Verify CRC32 value of the input file file.crc32 and write the input file

   (not including CRC32 value) to the output file file.orig

  GenCrc32 -d -o file.orig file.crc32

1. Verify CRC32 value of the input file file.crc32 in the quiet mode and

   write the input file (not including CRC32 value) to the output file

   file.orig

  GenCrc32 -d -q -o file.orig file.crc32
