3DES Test Vector

Example for 3-key 3DES encryption (192-bit) to match a test vector produced by both (non-Chilkat) PHP code and C# code using the .NET Framework.

'  KeyLength must be 192.  3DES is technically 168-bits;
'  the most-significant bit of each key byte is a parity bit,
'  so we must indicate a KeyLength of 192, which includes
'  the parity bits.

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

'  The secret key must equal the size of the key.  For
'  3DES, the key must be 24 bytes (i.e. 192-bits).
