(VBScript) Blowfish Encryption to Match PHP's Mcrypt Extension

Demonstrates how to match Blowfish encryption results with PHP's mcrypt extension.

Please refer to this PHP (non-Chilkat) example for PHP Blowfish Encryption. The code here matches the PHP mcrypt results on that web page.

Dim fso, outFile
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
'Create a Unicode (utf-16) output text file.
Set outFile = fso.CreateTextFile("output.txt", True, True)

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

' For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use CreateObject("Chilkat_9_5_0.Crypt2")
set crypt = CreateObject("Chilkat.Crypt2")

' Use "blowfish2" to get proper results:
crypt.CryptAlgorithm = "blowfish2"

' CipherMode may be "ecb" or "cbc"
crypt.CipherMode = "cbc"

' KeyLength (in bits) may be a number between 32 and 448.
' 128-bits is usually sufficient.  The KeyLength must be a 
' multiple of 8.
crypt.KeyLength = 256

' Pad with NULL bytes (PHP pads with NULL bytes)
crypt.PaddingScheme = 3

' EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the output for
' encryption, and the input for decryption.
' It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".
crypt.EncodingMode = "hex"

' The blowfish algorithm uses a 64-bit block size, 
' therefore the IV must be 8 bytes:
ivAscii = "12345678"
crypt.SetEncodedIV ivAscii,"ascii"

' For 256-bit encryption, the key is 32 bytes:
keyAscii = "1234567890123456ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP"
crypt.SetEncodedKey keyAscii,"ascii"

plainText = "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog"

cipherText = crypt.EncryptStringENC(plainText)
outFile.WriteLine(cipherText)
' Output should be (case insensitive):

' Do 128-bit Blowfish encryption:
crypt.KeyLength = 128
keyAscii = "1234567890123456"
crypt.SetEncodedKey keyAscii,"ascii"

cipherText = crypt.EncryptStringENC(plainText)
outFile.WriteLine(cipherText)
