Twofish CFB Mode Encryption

Demonstrates how to encrypt using Twofish CFB (Cipher Feedback) mode. Lua

local chilkat = require("chilkat")

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

local crypt = chilkat.Crypt2.new()

crypt.crypt_algorithm = "twofish"
crypt.cipher_mode = "cfb"
crypt.key_length = 256

-- EncodingMode specifies the encoding of the output for
-- encryption, and the input for decryption.
-- It may be "hex", "url", "base64", "quoted-printable", or many other choices.
crypt.encoding_mode = "hex"

local ivHex = "000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F"

-- The secret key must equal the size of the key.  For
-- 256-bit encryption, the binary secret key is 32 bytes.
local keyHex = "603deb1015ca71be2b73aef0857d77811f352c073b6108d72d9810a30914dff4"
crypt:set_encoded_key(keyHex, "hex")

-- Encrypt a string...
