// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Chilkat.Crypt2 crypt = new Chilkat.Crypt2();

// Here are some bytes as a hex string
string hex = "4142434445462140232425";

// The ReEncode method converts a string from one encoding to another.
// Valid encodings are "url", "base64", "qp", "hex", "modbase64", "base64url", "base32", "base58",
// and any of the encodings listed here:  http://cknotes.com/chilkat-binary-encoding-list

// Convert from hex to base64
string b64 = crypt.ReEncode(hex,"hex","base64");
Debug.WriteLine("base64: " + b64);

// Convert from base64 to base32
string b32 = crypt.ReEncode(b64,"base64","base32");
Debug.WriteLine("base32: " + b32);

// Convert from base32 back to hex
hex = crypt.ReEncode(b32,"base32","hex");
Debug.WriteLine("hex: " + hex);
