Example for both AES-128 and ChaCha20 to Encrypt Binary Data

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates the use of the new EncryptBd and DecryptBd methods introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.67 to encrypt/decrypt binary bytes.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.67 or greater.

Swift

func chilkatTest() {
    var success: Bool = false

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

    // Load a small JPG file to be encrypted/decrypted.
    let jpgBytes = CkoBinData()!
    success = jpgBytes.loadFile(path: "qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg")
    if success != true {
        print("Failed to load JPG file.")
        return
    }

    // Show the unencrypted JPG bytes in Base64 format.
    // (The "base64_mime" encoding was added in Chilkat v9.5.0.67.
    // The "base64" encoding emits a single line of base64, whereas
    // "base64_mime" will emit multi-line base64 as it would appear
    // in MIME.)
    print("\(jpgBytes.getEncoded(encoding: "base64_mime")!)")

    // Sample base64_mime JPG data:

    // To do chacha20 encryption, just change the settings:

    crypt.keyLength = 256
    // The initial count is the initial block counter for the chacha20 algorithm.
    // It can be any integer, but must be set to the same when decrypting.
