Workaround for the deprecated Crypt2.HashBytesENC method

Shows how to replace the deprecated HashBytesENC method. (Chilkat is moving away from the use of CkByteData.) Perl

use chilkat();

$crypt = chilkat::CkCrypt2->new();

$crypt->put_HashAlgorithm("sha256");
$crypt->put_EncodingMode("base64");

$path = "c:/someDir/example.dat";

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The HashBytes method is deprecated:

$inData = chilkat::CkByteData->new();
$inData->loadFile($path);

$base64_hash = $crypt->hashBytesENC($inData);

# ------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Workaround.
# (Chilkat is moving away from using CkByteData)

$bdIn = chilkat::CkBinData->new();
$bdIn->LoadFile($path);

$base64_hash = $crypt->hashBdENC($bdIn);
