Erik de Bruin commented on FLEX-33150:
--------------------------------------

Maybe something like this does the trick (haven't run it, so mileage may vary 
;-)):

public function verifyApacheFlexSDKIntegrity(localApacheFlexSDKZipFile:File, 
                                                                   
md5HashFromApacheOrg:String):Boolean {
        /**
         *  Note: get MD5 hash of Apache distro from: 
         *      
http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/flex/4.8.0-incubating/binaries/apache-flex-sdk-4.8.0-incubating-bin.zip.md5
         */
        
        var fileAsByteArray:ByteArray = new ByteArray();
        
        var fileStream:FileStream = new FileStream();
        fileStream.open(localApacheFlexSDKZipFile, FileMode.READ);
        fileStream.readBytes(fileAsByteArray);
        fileStream.close();
        
        var md5:MD5 = new MD5();
        
        var hashAsByteArray:ByteArray = md5.hash(fileAsByteArray)
        
        var md5HashFromLocal:String = 
hashAsByteArray.readUTFBytes(hashAsByteArray.length);
        
        return md5HashFromLocal = md5HashFromApacheOrg;
}
