A modern, high-performance graphical user interface for calculating cryptographic hashes, built with Python and Tkinter.

• Supported Algorithms: MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384, SHA-512, and CRC-32.
• Input Modes:
  • Text Mode: Instant hashing of typed text with optional auto-calculation.
  • File Mode: Secure hashing of files (or entire folders) of any size.
• High Performance:
  • Uses optimized native libraries (hashlib, zlib) for maximum speed.
  • Hashes large files (e.g., 5GB+) in seconds.
• Memory Efficient:
  • Uses chunked streaming (16MB chunks) to process files.
  • Minimal memory footprint (~16MB RAM regardless of file size).
• User-Friendly:
  • Real-time progress indicators for file hashing.
  • Drag-and-drop support for files.
  • Copy results to clipboard with one click.

• Python 3.x (with Tkinter)
• G++ Compiler (MinGW for Windows)
  • Download from: MinGW-w64 or WinLibs
  • Ensure g++ is in your system PATH

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd Hashing-Algorithm

2. Build the C++ executables:

   Run the build script to compile all hash algorithm implementations:

   build.bat

   This will create executables in the bin/ directory:

   • Sha256.exe, Sha384.exe, Sha512.exe
   • Sha1.exe, Md5.exe
   • Crc.exe

3. Verify the build:

   Check that the bin/ directory contains all .exe files.

1. Start the application:

   python app/gui.py

2. Select algorithms:

   • Go to Hash Option menu and select one or more algorithms.

3. Calculate hashes:

   Text Mode:

   • Type or paste text into the input field.
   • Check "Calculate Immediately" for auto-hashing as you type.
   • Or click "Calculate Hash" to hash manually.

   File Mode:

   • Click + to add individual files.
   • Click +F to add all files from a folder.
   • Click Calculate Hash to process all files.
   • View progress indicators during hashing.

4. Copy results:

   • Click the Copy button to copy all hash results to clipboard.

"Executable not found" error:

• Make sure you've run build.bat successfully.
• Check that the bin/ directory contains all .exe files.

Build fails:

• Ensure g++ is installed and in your PATH.
• Try running g++ --version to verify installation.

Python import errors:

• Ensure you're running Python 3.x.
• Tkinter should be included by default; if not, reinstall Python with Tkinter enabled.
