Retrieve,MD5
Calculate the MD5 hash of a file.
Syntax
Retrieve,MD5,<Filename>,<%var%>
Parameters
| 1 | Filename | The full path of the file to hash |
| 2 | %var% | a user defined variable used to store the calculated hash. |
Remarks
MD5 is a way to calculate a number known as a 'hash' or 'checksum' that is based on the content of a file.
It is most often used as a safety check to ensure that files are complete and unmodified when they are downloaded from a server.
Example:
This function will write the value of the MD5 result on %var%, you can compare against a security value written elsewhere to prove that your file is intact.
Retrieve,MD5,c:\MyText.txt,%var%
