Install Info

The MD5 Message Digest Unit, documentation and test suite are supplied in a zip file. Before installing you need to extract all the files from the zip file, preserving the directory structure. The following files will be extracted:

  • PJMD5.pas – Main source code.
  • ReadMe.htm – The unit's read-me file.
  • ChangeLog.txt – The unit's change log.
  • DocumentationWiki.URL – Shortcut to the online Wiki that documents the unit.
  • GPL-2.0.txt – GNU General Public License v2.0.
  • LGPL-2.1.txt – GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1.
  • MD5-Notice.txt – MD5 algorithm licensing notice.
  • MPL-1.1.txt – Mozilla Public Licence v1.1.

In addition to the above files you will find the DUnit tests for PJMD5.pas in the Test sub-directory.

There are three possible ways to use the unit.

  1. The simplest way is to add PJMD5.pas to your projects as you need it.
  2. To make the unit easier to re-use you can either copy it to a folder on your Delphi search path, or add the folder where you extracted the unit to the Delphi Search path. You then simply use the unit as required without needing to add it to your project.
  3. For maximum portability you can add the unit to a Delphi design time package. If you need help doing this see here.

No help file is available. Documentation is provided in the MD5 Message Digest Unit Wiki.
