Class PureJavaCrc32

java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.codec.digest.PureJavaCrc32
All Implemented Interfaces:
Checksum

public class PureJavaCrc32 extends Object implements Checksum
A pure-Java implementation of the CRC32 checksum that uses the same polynomial as the built-in native CRC32.

This is to avoid the JNI overhead for certain uses of checksumming where many small pieces of data are checksummed in succession.

The current version is ~10x to 1.8x as fast as Sun's native java.util.zip.CRC32 in Java 1.6
