Encode Integer to Hex or Base64 using N Bytes

See more Encryption Examples

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.

// Write the integer in 8 bytes using little-endian byte-order and return as hex
li_BLittleEndian = 1
s = loo_Crypt.EncodeInt(li_Value,8,li_BLittleEndian,"hex")
// The output is: 5634120000000000
Write-Debug s

// Now use big-endian...
li_BLittleEndian = 0
s = loo_Crypt.EncodeInt(li_Value,8,li_BLittleEndian,"hex")
// The output is: 0000000000123456
Write-Debug s

// Instead of hex, get the 8 bytes using base64.
s = loo_Crypt.EncodeInt(li_Value,8,li_BLittleEndian,"base64")
// The output is: AAAAAAASNFY=
Write-Debug s
