(Lianja) Encode Integer to Hex or Base64 using N Bytes

Demonstrates how to write an integer to N bytes (little-endian or big-endian) and return the bytes in any encoding such as hex, base64, etc.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.77 or greater.

// 1193046 decimal is equal to 0x123456 hex.
lnValue = 1193046

// Write the integer in 8 bytes using little-endian byte-order and return as hex
llBLittleEndian = .T.
s = loCrypt.EncodeInt(lnValue,8,llBLittleEndian,"hex")
// The output is: 5634120000000000
? s

// Now use big-endian...
llBLittleEndian = .F.
s = loCrypt.EncodeInt(lnValue,8,llBLittleEndian,"hex")
// The output is: 0000000000123456
? s

// Instead of hex, get the 8 bytes using base64.
s = loCrypt.EncodeInt(lnValue,8,llBLittleEndian,"base64")
// The output is: AAAAAAASNFY=
? s
