(C++) RSAES-OAEP Encrypt String with AES-128 Content Encryption and SHA256

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.

    // 4 the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.
