RSAES-OAEP Encrypt String with AES-128 Content Encryption and SHA256

See more Encryption Examples

Encrypts a string using RSAES-OAEP with SHA256 and AES-128 content encryption to produce PKCS7 output (base64 encoded).

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.67 or greater.

# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# First build a string to be encrypted

# The string to be encrypted looks like this:

# 1 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
# 2 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
# 3 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
# 4 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
# 5 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
# 6 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
