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

    crypt := chilkat.NewCrypt2()

    var s1 string
    var s2 *string = new(string)
    var s3 *string = new(string)

    s1 = "This string is to be UU encoded"

    crypt.SetUuMode("666")
    crypt.SetUuFilename("something.txt")

    // UU encode:
    s2 = crypt.EncodeString(s1,"ansi","uu")

    // Note: Call crypt.Encode instead of crypt.EncodeString
    // to UU encode binary bytes (i.e. non-text binary data).

    fmt.Println(*s2)

    // UU decode:
    crypt2 := chilkat.NewCrypt2()
    s3 = crypt2.DecodeString(*s2,"ansi","uu")

    // Note: Likewise, call crypt.Decode to decode non-text binary data.

    fmt.Println(*s3)

    // Show the file permissions mode and filename found
    // in the UU encoded data:
    fmt.Println("UuMode = ", crypt2.UuMode())
    fmt.Println("UuFilename = ", crypt2.UuFilename())
