Encode Integer to Hex or Base64 using N Bytes

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to write an integer to N bytes (little-endian or big-endian) and return the bytes in any encoding such as hex, base64, etc.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.77 or greater.

C

#include <C_CkCrypt2.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    HCkCrypt2 crypt;
    int value;
    BOOL bLittleEndian;
    const char *s;

    crypt = CkCrypt2_Create();

    // 1193046 decimal is equal to 0x123456 hex.
    value = 1193046;

    // Write the integer in 8 bytes using little-endian byte-order and return as hex
    bLittleEndian = TRUE;
    s = CkCrypt2_encodeInt(crypt,value,8,bLittleEndian,"hex");
    // The output is: 5634120000000000
    printf("%s\n",s);

    // Now use big-endian...
    bLittleEndian = FALSE;
    s = CkCrypt2_encodeInt(crypt,value,8,bLittleEndian,"hex");
    // The output is: 0000000000123456
    printf("%s\n",s);

    // Instead of hex, get the 8 bytes using base64.
    s = CkCrypt2_encodeInt(crypt,value,8,bLittleEndian,"base64");
    // The output is: AAAAAAASNFY=
    printf("%s\n",s);


    CkCrypt2_Dispose(crypt);
