What is Boost.CRC?

CRCs (cyclic redundancy codes) is one common technique to confirming data integrity after transmission. The Boost.CRC library provides access to two styles of CRC computation, one as a function template, the other as a function template and two computation object class templates, where the two class templates differ in speed.
