Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress 4GL Reference

MD5-VALUE attribute

Returns the MD5 value stored in an r-code file.

Data type: CHARACTER

Access: Readable

Applies to: RCODE-INFO system handle

The return value is a 32 character hexadecimal number.

Use this attribute to determine if a procedure changed between different versions of your application.

If you did not use the GENERATE-MD5 option on the COMPILE statement to compile a procedure or class, Progress did not store the MD5 value in the r-code file. In this case, this attribute returns the Unknown value (?).
