MD5 Checksums

[AussieTimmeh]

Hi all,

I just updated to the latest AutoIT and Scite and I've found that plugins are now no longer supported. I used the plugin to get MD5 Checksums of files in my script, as follows:

;Open the plugin
#compiler_plugin_funcs = MD5Hash
$MD5Plugin = PluginOpen(@ScriptDir & "\MD5Hash.dll")
;Get the MD5 checksum of a file
$Checksum = MD5Hash("C:\file.txt", 1 , True)
;Close the plugin
PluginClose($MD5Plugin)

 

What can I do to replace this function? Googling this issue is coming up with some amazingly complicated potential solutions like this: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

This looked like a potential easy solution from guiness: 

But the value returned is not the same (for example, using the old plugin I get F8F783F2CBDF483F576557EFC0ECBC94, with guinesses I get 0xAE1197F85300EE17AA5D432AD39136EB for the same file.

I've just spent a couple hours trying to get something to work but no luck so far. If anyone can help me out, I would be much appreciated.

Please disregard, I am an idiot. I did not change the value in guinesses example to checksum the whole file instead of the 25 percent used in the example. Once, I did this, then all I need to do is remove the 0x at the front and the value is the same.
