how to calculate CRC value for a file in C#.net?

Question

i want to calculate the CRC value for a file using 32-bit algorithm in C#.net....

Answer 1

Algorithm is straightforward (rewritten from c++)

class Crc32
{
    public static uint CountCrc(byte[] pBuf)
    {
        // Table of CRC-32's of all single byte values
        uint[] crctab = new uint[] {
          0x00000000, 0x77073096, 0xee0e612c, 0x990951ba, 0x076dc419,
