// Set properties for PBES2 encryption:

// When the encryption algorithm is set to "pbes2",
// Chilkat will automatically derive the actual secret key using PBKDF2 and
// the specified paramters: password, salt, iteration count, hash function, and desired key length.

CkCrypt2_putCryptAlgorithm(crypt,'pbes2');

// computationally expensive and therefore exhaustive
// searches (for breaking the encryption) is more difficult:
