Decrypt 256-bit AES GCM Produced by Something Unknown

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to decrypt something produced elsewhere (unknown) with 256-bit AES GCM. DataFlex

Use ChilkatAx-win32.pkg

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

    // We have the following to decrypt:

    // Key (Base64): 
    Move "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" To sKeyBase64

    // IV (Base64Url):
    Move "xrvaINMLqotAbWRK" To sIvBase64Url
