(Delphi DLL) 3DES Encryption, ECB, CBC modes

3DES encryption. The Chilkat encryption component supports Triple-DES in both ECB (Electronic Cookbook) and CBC (Cipher-Block Chaining) cipher modes.

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

// Specify 3DES for the encryption algorithm:
CkCrypt2_putCryptAlgorithm(crypt,'3des');

// CipherMode may be "ecb" or "cbc"
CkCrypt2_putCipherMode(crypt,'cbc');

// KeyLength must be 192.  3DES is technically 168-bits;
// the most-significant bit of each key byte is a parity bit,
// so we must indicate a KeyLength of 192, which includes
// the parity bits.
CkCrypt2_putKeyLength(crypt,192);

// The padding scheme determines the contents of the bytes
// that are added to pad the result to a multiple of the
// encryption algorithm's block size.  3DES has a block
// size of 8 bytes, so encrypted output is always
// a multiple of 8.
CkCrypt2_putPaddingScheme(crypt,0);

// EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the output for
// encryption, and the input for decryption.
// It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".

// ECB mode does not use an IV.
// The length of the IV is equal to the algorithm's block size.
// It is NOT equal to the length of the key.

// Encrypt a string...
// The input string is 44 ANSI characters (i.e. 44 bytes), so
// the output should be 48 bytes (a multiple of 8).
// Because the output is a hex string, it should
// be 96 characters long (2 chars per byte).
