How to create hashes using Ant
The following code sample shows a target that can be used to create MD5 and SHA1 hashes for any path
<!--
Utility Ant target to create MD5 and SHA1 checksums in standard format (with *filename)
Usage:
<antcall target="_checksum">
<param name="path" value="filename_src.zip"/>
</antcall>
-->
<target name="_checksum">
<echo message="Creating MD5 for ${path}"/>
<basename property="_base" file="${path}"/>
<checksum file="${path}" property="md5"/>
<echo message="${md5} *${_base}" file="${path}.md5"/>
<echo message="Creating SHA1 for ${path}"/>
<basename property="_base" file="${path}"/>
<checksum file="${path}" property="sha1" algorithm="SHA"/>
<!-- the * should be replaced with space for non-binary files-->
<echo message="${sha1} *${_base}" file="${path}.sha1"/>
</target>
