Hi All,

I want to find out the md5 check sum of a file while giving the path of
the file.

#include <CommonCrypto/CommonDigest.h>

This is Apple's preferred high-level API for generating digests/hashes.

If you have a choice of algorithms, and if this involves security at all, SHA-1 is a better choice. There are known weaknesses in MD5.
