Ruby Requires Chilkat v11.0.0+

Workaround for the deprecated Crypt2.Encode method

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

require 'chilkat'

crypt = Chilkat::CkCrypt2.new()

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

#  Such as base64, hex, hex_lower, etc.
encoding = "base64"

#  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  The Encode method is deprecated:

inData = Chilkat::CkByteData.new()
inData.loadFile(path)

encodedBytes = crypt.encode(inData,encoding)

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

bd = Chilkat::CkBinData.new()
bd.LoadFile(path)

encodedBytes = bd.getEncoded(encoding)
