HMAC with SHA256

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to compute a HMAC SHA256 keyed-hash message authentication code. 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();

# The output will be Hex, so set the EncodingMode:
$crypt->put_EncodingMode("hex");

# Set the hash algorithm:
# Choices are: md5, sha-1, sha256, sha384, sha512, md2, haval
$crypt->put_HashAlgorithm("sha256");
$crypt->put_MacAlgorithm("hmac");

# Set the HMAC key:
$crypt->SetMacKeyEncoded("The_API_Secret","ascii");
$mac = $crypt->macStringENC("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog");
print $mac . "\r\n";
