Blowfish Encryption to Match PHP's Mcrypt Extension

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to match Blowfish encryption results with PHP's mcrypt extension.

Please refer to this PHP (non-Chilkat) example for PHP Blowfish Encryption. The code here matches the PHP mcrypt results on that web page.

        // CipherMode may be "ecb" or "cbc"

        // KeyLength (in bits) may be a number between 32 and 448.

        // multiple of 8.

        // Pad with NULL bytes (PHP pads with NULL bytes)
        crypt.setPaddingScheme(3);

        // EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the output for
        // encryption, and the input for decryption.
        // It may be "hex", "url", "base64", or "quoted-printable".
        crypt.setEncodingMode("hex");

        // The blowfish algorithm uses a 64-bit block size,
        // therefore the IV must be 8 bytes:
        String ivAscii = "12345678";
        crypt.setEncodedIV(ivAscii, "ascii");

        // For 256-bit encryption, the key is 32 bytes:
