Encrypt a JWE with a Password (PBES2)

See more JSON Web Encryption (JWE) Examples

Demonstrates Jwe.SetPassword, which sets the PBES2 password for a recipient. The example uses PBES2-HS256+A128KW key management with AES-128-GCM content encryption.

Dim success As Boolean
success = False

Dim jwe As New Chilkat.Jwe

//  Protected header: PBES2 password-based key management with AES-128-GCM content encryption.
Dim header As New Chilkat.JsonObject
success = header.UpdateString("alg","PBES2-HS256+A128KW")
success = header.UpdateString("enc","A128GCM")
success = jwe.SetProtectedHeader(header)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(jwe.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

//  Set the PBES2 password for recipient 0.  The password should come from a secure source rather than
//  being hard-coded.
Dim password As String
password = "myPassword"
success = jwe.SetPassword(0,password)
If (success = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(jwe.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

Dim jweCompact As String
jweCompact = jwe.Encrypt("This is the secret content.","utf-8")
If (jwe.LastMethodSuccess = False) Then
    System.DebugLog(jwe.LastErrorText)
    Return
End If

System.DebugLog(jweCompact)
