(C#) Example: Crypt2.GenRandomBytesENC method

Shows how to use the GenRandomBytesENC method to generate a specified number of random bytes and return them as a binary encoded string, such as in base64 or hex format.

// Example of a some of the binary encodings supported by Chilkat.

// Internally uses the Fortuna cryptographically secure random number generation algorithm
// auto-seeded from a secure source of entropy that depends on the OS.

string s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Uppercase Hex: " + s);

crypt.EncodingMode = "hex_lower";
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Lowercase Hex: " + s);

crypt.EncodingMode = "base64";
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Base64: " + s);

crypt.EncodingMode = "base64url";
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Base64Url: " + s);

crypt.EncodingMode = "base58";
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Base58: " + s);

crypt.EncodingMode = "base32";
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Base32: " + s);

crypt.EncodingMode = "decList";
s = crypt.GenRandomBytesENC(8);
Debug.WriteLine("Decimal List: " + s);

// Sample Output:

// Uppercase Hex: 1BA0E87915C3B429
// Lowercase Hex: 1e1638a1c7996c58
// Base64: 1lV0I/su5lg=
// Base64Url: Zq7DU0nukLk
// Base58: foUVWUjAT6e
// Base32: LHV5RV4HRCLW2===
// Decimal List: 168,55,214,82,93,154,191,164
