Decimal Integer List Encoding

See more Encryption Examples

The "decList" encoding was added in Chilkat v9.5.0.66 to encode and decode binary bytes from comma-separated decimal integers. PowerShell

Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

# Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.66 or greater.

$byteVals = "84,104,101,32,116,114,117,101,32,115,105,103,110,32,111,102,32,105,110,116,101,108,108,105,103,101,110,99,101,32,105,115,32,110,111,116,32,107,110,111,119,108,101,100,103,101,32,98,117,116,32,105,109,97,103,105,110,97,116,105,111,110,46"

# Demonstrate encoding/decoding comma-separated decimal integrs to/from binary.
$binData = New-Object Chilkat.BinData
$binData.AppendEncoded($byteVals,"decList")

# Examine the data in hex
$("HEX: " + $binData.GetEncoded("hex"))

# Decode to a StringBuilder
$sb = New-Object Chilkat.StringBuilder
$sb.AppendBd($binData,"us-ascii",0,0)

# The bytes were actually the us-ascii char values for the string
# "The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination."
$($sb.GetAsString())

# Now get the bytes in decimal list format again:
$($binData.GetEncoded("decList"))

# The output of this example is:
# HEX: 5468652074727565207369676E206F6620696E74656C6C6967656E6365206973206E6F74206B6E6F776C656467652062757420696D6167696E6174696F6E2E
