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

// Here we have a sample from CAVS validatition data:

// COUNT = 301
// DataUnitLen = 200
// Key = 
// 394c97881abd989d29c703e48a72b397
// a7acf51b59649eeea9b33274d8541df4
// i = 4b15c684a152d485fe9937d39b168c29
// PT = 2f3b9dcfbae729583b1d1ffdd16bb6fe2757329435662a78f0
// CT = f3473802e38a3ffef4d4fb8e6aa266ebde553a64528a06463e

// Note: The above sample requires an AES-XTS implementation that fully supports ciphertext-stealing
// because the data to be encrypted is not an even multiple of the AES block size (i.e. not a multiple of 16 bytes).
// Chilkat fully supports AES-XTS with ciphertext stealing.
// (i.e. Chilkat implements XEX-based tweaked-codebook mode with ciphertext stealing (XTS))
