(Xojo Plugin) Encode Integer to Hex or Base64 using N Bytes
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.
Dim crypt As New Chilkat.Crypt2
// 1193046 decimal is equal to 0x123456 hex.
Dim value As Int32
value = 1193046
// Write the integer in 8 bytes using little-endian byte-order and return as hex
Dim bLittleEndian As Boolean
bLittleEndian = True
Dim s As String
s = crypt.EncodeInt(value,8,bLittleEndian,"hex")
// The output is: 5634120000000000
System.DebugLog(s)
// Now use big-endian...
bLittleEndian = False
s = crypt.EncodeInt(value,8,bLittleEndian,"hex")
// The output is: 0000000000123456
System.DebugLog(s)
// Instead of hex, get the 8 bytes using base64.
s = crypt.EncodeInt(value,8,bLittleEndian,"base64")
// The output is: AAAAAAASNFY=
System.DebugLog(s)
