RC2 Encryption and Decryption

See more Encryption Examples

RC2 encryption. The Chilkat encryption component supports RC2 encryption in both ECB (Electronic Cookbook) and CBC (Cipher-Block Chaining) modes. The key size may range from 8 bits to 1024 bits. Perl

use chilkat();

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

$crypt = chilkat::CkCrypt2->new();

# Set the encryption algorithm = "rc2"	
$crypt->put_CryptAlgorithm("rc2");

# CipherMode may be "ecb" or "cbc"
$crypt->put_CipherMode("cbc");

# KeyLength may range from 8 bits to 1024 bits
$crypt->put_KeyLength(128);

# RC2 also has an effective key length property
# which can also range from 8 bits to 1024 bits:
$crypt->put_Rc2EffectiveKeyLength(128);

# 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.  RC2 has a block
# size of 8 bytes, so encrypted output is always
# a multiple of 8.
$crypt->put_PaddingScheme(0);

# EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the output for
# encryption, and the input for decryption.
# It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".
$crypt->put_EncodingMode("hex");

# An initialization vector is required if using CBC mode.
# 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.
$ivHex = "0001020304050607";
$crypt->SetEncodedIV($ivHex,"hex");

# The secret key must equal the size of the key.
# For 128-bit encryption, the binary secret key is 16 bytes.
$keyHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F101112131415161718191A1B1C1D1E1F";
$crypt->SetEncodedKey($keyHex,"hex");

# 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).
$encStr = $crypt->encryptStringENC("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.");
print $encStr . "\r\n";

# Now decrypt:
$decStr = $crypt->decryptStringENC($encStr);
print $decStr . "\r\n";
