Encrypt / Decrypt Secure Strings

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to use the EncryptSecureENC and DecryptSecureENC methods to encrypt/decrypt secure strings. These methods were added in Chilkat v9.5.0.71 (released January 2018). Java

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

    //  Load the secure string with some text.
    CkSecureString secStr1 = new CkSecureString();
    success = secStr1.LoadFile("qa_data/txt/helloWorld.txt","utf-8");

    //  Return the base64 encoded encrypted contents of secStr1.
    String encryptedStr = crypt.encryptSecureENC(secStr1);
    System.out.println("Encrypted string: " + encryptedStr);

    //  Output:
    //  Encrypted string: qiq+IFhcjTkEIkZyf31V/g==

    //  Decrypt to secStr2:
    CkSecureString secStr2 = new CkSecureString();
    crypt.DecryptSecureENC(encryptedStr,secStr2);

    //  Access the contents of secStr2
    System.out.println("Decrypted string: " + secStr2.access());

    //  Output:
    //  Decrypted string: Hello World!
