(AutoIt) Decode from Binary Encoding and Append String

Demonstrates how to decode from a binary encoding (base64, hex, url, etc.) and then append the decoded string to a Chilkat StringBuilder object.

Note: This example uses the new DecodeAndAppend method added in Chilkat v9.5.0.87.

; We have the string "MÆRSK" in two forms:

; This is the URL encoding of the windows-1252 representation.
Local $sNameWindows1252UrlEncoded = "M%C6RSK"

; This is the URL encoding of the utf-8 representation.
Local $sNameUtf8UrlEncoded = "M%C3%86RSK"

; Note that the result of loading a string into a string object 
; is the same if we correctly specify the underlying charset encoding.
; In the above example, we have the same string, but in different charset encodings
; subsequently URL encoded.
$oSb1 = ObjCreate("Chilkat.StringBuilder")
Local $bSuccess = $oSb1.DecodeAndAppend($sNameWindows1252UrlEncoded,"url","windows-1252")

$oSb2 = ObjCreate("Chilkat.StringBuilder")
$bSuccess = $oSb2.DecodeAndAppend($sNameUtf8UrlEncoded,"url","utf-8")

; sb1 and sb2 both hold the same string.
Local $bEqual = $oSb1.ContentsEqualSb($oSb2,True)
ConsoleWrite("bEqual = " & $bEqual & @CRLF)

; We can see the string is "MÆRSK" in both cases.
ConsoleWrite($oSb1.GetAsString() & @CRLF)
ConsoleWrite($oSb2.GetAsString() & @CRLF)
