First let me thank you for your help,
Basically it would work to read each line. But, if the file is VERY large, then it will lterally never work.
The problem with the buffered string was, that it does not compute the HashValue of the whole file. I need every byte in the calculation. Well now I came to the conclusion I could take a Hash from each line, and not adding every line into one variable.
Then I could add the checksums of every line, which schould be far smaller and create a checksum of the single ones.
This is a pretty difficult thing i guess.
Maybe it would be possible to use
MD5CryptoServiceProvider().ComputeHash(ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(args));
with a filename? *g*
I got the idiea for the program from one called RetroSFV, it can create checksums for 1gig files within 30secs. I guess it's written in c++.
I would be happy for further support, but you've probably already heated your heads too much with this
![]()
