Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

# Note: Requires Chilkat v9.5.0.65 or greater.

$sb = New-Object Chilkat.StringBuilder

# Encode the utf-8 byte representation of the string in the 
# UN/EDIFACT syntax level A character set.
$sb.Encode("eda","utf-8")

# The following requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# The "eda" encoding can be used anywhere within Chilkat.
# For example, with the Crypt2 API
$crypt = New-Object Chilkat.Crypt2
$crypt.CryptAlgorithm = "aes"
$crypt.CipherMode = "cbc"
$crypt.KeyLength = 256
$crypt.EncodingMode = "eda"

$crypt.SetEncodedKey($keyHex,"hex")

$encStr = $crypt.EncryptStringENC("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")
# The output is UN/EDIFACT syntax level A 
$($encStr)

# Now decrypt:
$decStr = $crypt.DecryptStringENC($encStr)
