[C#] - Calculating CRC32 Hash from any file or string

This is a small code to get CRC32 from any file or string:

Code:

    public class Crc32 : HashAlgorithm //Core code
    {
        public const UInt32 DefaultPolynomial = 0xedb88320;
        public const UInt32 DefaultSeed = 0xffffffff;

        private UInt32 hash;
        private UInt32 seed;
        private UInt32[] table;
        private static UInt32[] defaultTable;

        public Crc32()
        {
            table = InitializeTable(DefaultPolynomial);
            seed = DefaultSeed;
            Initialize();
        }

        public Crc32(UInt32 polynomial, UInt32 seed)
        {
            table = InitializeTable(polynomial);
            this.seed = seed;
            Initialize();
        }

        public override void Initialize()
        {
            hash = seed;
        }

        protected override void HashCore(byte[] buffer, int start, int length)
        {
            hash = CalculateHash(table, hash, buffer, start, length);
        }

        protected override byte[] HashFinal()
        {
            byte[] hashBuffer = UInt32ToBigEndianBytes(~hash);
            this.HashValue = hashBuffer;
            return hashBuffer;
        }

        public override int HashSize
        {
            get { return 32; }
        }

        public static UInt32 Compute(byte[] buffer)
        {
            return ~CalculateHash(InitializeTable(DefaultPolynomial), DefaultSeed, buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
        }

        public static UInt32 Compute(UInt32 seed, byte[] buffer)
        {
            return ~CalculateHash(InitializeTable(DefaultPolynomial), seed, buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
        }

        public static UInt32 Compute(UInt32 polynomial, UInt32 seed, byte[] buffer)
        {
            return ~CalculateHash(InitializeTable(polynomial), seed, buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
        }

        private static UInt32[] InitializeTable(UInt32 polynomial)
        {
            if (polynomial == DefaultPolynomial && defaultTable != null)
                return defaultTable;

            UInt32[] createTable = new UInt32[256];
            for (int i = 0; i < 256; i++)
            {
                UInt32 entry = (UInt32)i;
                for (int j = 0; j < 8; j++)
                    if ((entry & 1) == 1)
                        entry = (entry >> 1) ^ polynomial;
                    else
                        entry = entry >> 1;
                createTable = entry;
            }

            if (polynomial == DefaultPolynomial)
                defaultTable = createTable;

            return createTable;
        }

        private static UInt32 CalculateHash(UInt32[] table, UInt32 seed, byte[] buffer, int start, int size)
        {
            UInt32 crc = seed;
            for (int i = start; i < size; i++)
                unchecked
                {
                    crc = (crc >> 8) ^ table[buffer ^ crc & 0xff];
                }
            return crc;
        }

        private byte[] UInt32ToBigEndianBytes(UInt32 x)
        {
            return new byte[] {
(byte)((x >> 24) & 0xff),
(byte)((x >> 16) & 0xff),
(byte)((x >> 8) & 0xff),
(byte)(x & 0xff)
};
        }
    }

        public static void Crc(string file) // invoke code
        {
            try
            {
                Crc32 crc32 = new Crc32();
                String hash = String.Empty;
                byte[] fs = File.ReadAllBytes(file);
                foreach (byte b in crc32.ComputeHash(fs)) hash += b.ToString("x2").ToUpper();
                Hashes = hash;
            }
            catch
            {
            }
        }

To use this:

Code:

        Crc("your file to get CRC");
        Hashes = "your object to dump CRC" // as textBox1.Text;

I hope it's useful
