The basic usage is:
java -jar EGTBChecker.jar /path/to/EGTBfiles
or
java -jar EGTBChecker.jar d:\EGTB
It recursively checks all files and sub-directories so if you have all your files in C:\EGTB no need to list each subdirectory.
Verified it works in Linux and Windows. Sorry it's command-line only for now, planning to add a GUI but wanted to get the core parts done first.
It supports the following EGTB tablebases:
Syzygy 3,4,5, 6 DTZ and 6 WDL
Gaviota 3,4,5
Nalimov 3,4,5, 6
Robbo Total Bases 3,4,5,z
Robbo Triple Bases 2,3,4,5,5-1, z
As always open to suggestions and comments!
It's a little raw. This has been in my head for years and finally sat down tonight and pushed it out in about 5 hours. Most of the work though was creating the database.

Re: Release: EGTB verification tool
You feed it a directory containing EGTB files. It verifies them against an internal database of MD5 hashes. Then lets you know if the files are ok, and what set they are from.flok wrote:But what does it do/check?
It's not impressive, more like an automated MD5 checker But it has verified MD5 of all the various EGTB's I listed (I have all of them even robbo).
In the future I'd like to add a report generator so it can tell you the final results broken down by set (Syzygy, Gaviota, etc) and what was corrupt/valid/missing and such.
For now though it's a good way to check and make sure your files are still ok and not suffering from bit rot. I'm glad I had 2 copies of the Nalimov 6men set as one was corrupted from deep storage.
Also open to ideas. When I get a chance I'll make a github account for it.
