Hi. I've started up an old project which makes use of PB Cipher library.
In the PB help under migration .. to PB 5.40 LTS. It states we have to call Use*FingerPrint() and use FileFingerprint() now.
I'm using PB 5.42 LTS Stable and despite what its documented in its associated PB Help file. UseCR32FingerPrint() doesn't exists.
'[16:08:08] [COMPILER] Line 243: UseCR32FingerPrint() is not a function, array, list, map or macro.'
.... so what gives, was
Fred on a drinking spree back when he was enhancing the Cipher library

I would keep going to v5.5b1, UseCRC32Fingerprint() is there.

I'm usually quick to grab the betas, at this time, I'm avoiding the beta. Besides the projects I've worked on, the 5.50beta offers nothing for enhancing my type projects. Therefore I like to hold off on 5.50 for now.

Just installed 5.42 back from website, and UseCRC32Fingerprint() is here. I wonder who is drinking here...

Yes, it's in 5.42. I think he is confusing the syntax changes made to the cipher lib? I remember recoding some functions when migrating from v5.3 to v5.4x.

I see why... The PB help file has spelling mistakes, which I overlooked also .. when copying and pasting

from PB Help file....
Code: Select all
CRC32FileFingerprint(): code change
; Old
Result = CRC32FileFingerprint(Filename$)
; New
UseCR32FingerPrint()
Result.l = Val("$"+FileFingerprint(Filename$, #PB_Cipher_CRC32))
CRC32Fingerprint(): code change
; Old
Result = CRC32Fingerprint(*Buffer, Size)
; New
UseCR32FingerPrint()
Result.l = Val("$"+Fingerprint(*Buffer, Size, #PB_Cipher_CRC32))

Edit:
Oh, I see you copied from the help file. And the typo was there.

Yes but
I was only copying from the official PB English help-file. If Fred maintains the English help-file, then he had many beers.
So the post of mine posting contents of the PB-Help file.
