HOTP Algorithm: HMAC-Based One-Time Password Algorithm

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to generate an HMAC one-time password (HOTP) as specified in RFC 4226.

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

Objective-C

#import <CkoCrypt2.h>
#import <NSString.h>

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

CkoCrypt2 *crypt = [[CkoCrypt2 alloc] init];

//  Duplicate the following results from RFC 4226
