Workaround for the deprecated EncryptString and DecryptString methods

Shows how to replace the deprecated EncryptString and DecryptString methods. (Chilkat is moving away from the use of CkByteData.) Node.js

function chilkatExample() {

    var success = false;

    var crypt = new chilkat.Crypt2();

    crypt.CryptAlgorithm = "aes";
    crypt.CipherMode = "cbc";
    crypt.KeyLength = 128;
    crypt.PaddingScheme = 0;
    crypt.SetEncodedKey("000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F","hex");
    crypt.SetEncodedIV("000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F","hex");

    success = false;

    crypt.Charset = "utf-8";
    var plainText = "text to be encrypted";

    //  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    //  The EncryptString and DecryptString methods are deprecated:

    encryptedBytes = crypt.EncryptString(plainText);

    var decryptedStr = crypt.DecryptString(encryptedBytes);
    console.log("Decrypted: " + decryptedStr);

    //  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
    //  Replace the above CkByteData usage with the following code:
    //  (Chilkat is moving away from using CkByteData)

    var bd = new chilkat.BinData();
    bd.AppendString(plainText,"utf-8");

    //  in-place encrypt
    crypt.EncryptBd(bd);

    //  in-place decrypt
    crypt.DecryptBd(bd);
    decryptedStr = bd.GetString("utf-8");
    console.log("Decrypted: " + decryptedStr);
