{ SEAN PALMER Here are some that make their tables on the fly (to save echo space) I believe crc should be inited to 0 at start This CRC-16 is not identical to the one used by the Xmodem and Zmodem File transfer protocols. The polynomial is the same (X^16+X^12+X^5+X^0 or 0x8408) but the bit-ordering is the opposite, and preconditioning and postconditioning is used as in 32-bit CRCs. This method is also used by the European version of X.25. } Var crc16table : Array [Byte] of Word; Procedure makeCRC16table; Var crc : Word; i,n : Byte; begin For i := 0 to 255 do begin crc := i; For n := 1 to 8 do if odd(crc) then crc := (crc shr 1) xor $8408 else crc := crc shr 1; crc16table[i] := crc; end; end; Function updateCRC16(c : Byte; crc : Word) : Word; begin updateCRC16 := crc16table[lo(crc) xor c] xor hi(crc); end; {this is the same crc used For zModem crc32} Var crc32table : Array [Byte] of LongInt; Procedure makeCRC32table; Var crc : LongInt; i,n : Byte; begin For i := 0 to 255 do begin crc := i; For n := 1 to 8 do if odd(crc) then crc := (crc shr 1) xor $EDB88320 else crc := crc shr 1; crc32table[i] := crc; end; end; Function updateCRC32(c : Byte; crc : LongInt) : LongInt; begin updateCRC32 := crc32table[lo(crc) xor c] xor (crc shr 8); end;
