(Swift) Encrypt / Decrypt Secure Strings

Demonstrates how to use the EncryptSecureENC and DecryptSecureENC methods to encrypt/decrypt secure strings. These methods were added in Chilkat v9.5.0.71 (released January 2018).

func chilkatTest() {
    //  This example requires the Chilkat Crypt API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Unlock Chilkat Crypt for sample code.

    //  Load the secure string with some text.
    let secStr1 = CkoSecureString()
    var success: Bool = secStr1.LoadFile("qa_data/txt/helloWorld.txt", charset: "utf-8")
    if success != true {
        print("Failed to load helloWorld.txt")
        return
    }

    let crypt = CkoCrypt2()

    crypt.CryptAlgorithm = "aes"
    crypt.CipherMode = "cbc"
    crypt.KeyLength = 128
    crypt.SetEncodedKey("000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F", encoding: "hex")
    crypt.SetEncodedIV("000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F", encoding: "hex")
    crypt.EncodingMode = "base64"

    //  Return the base64 encoded encrypted contents of secStr1.
    var encryptedStr: String? = crypt.EncryptSecureENC(secStr1)
    print("Encrypted string: \(encryptedStr!)")

    //  Output:
    //  Encrypted string: qiq+IFhcjTkEIkZyf31V/g==

    //  Decrypt to secStr2:
    let secStr2 = CkoSecureString()
    crypt.DecryptSecureENC(encryptedStr, secureStr: secStr2)

    //  Access the contents of secStr2
    print("Decrypted string: \(secStr2.Access())")

    //  Output:
    //  Decrypted string: Hello World!
