Demonstrates how to convert a string from one encoding to another. Xojo Plugin

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

Dim crypt As New Chilkat.Crypt2

// Here are some bytes as a hex string
Dim hex As String
hex = "4142434445462140232425"

// The ReEncode method converts a string from one encoding to another.
// Valid encodings are "url", "base64", "qp", "hex", "modbase64", "base64url", "base32", "base58",
// and any of the encodings listed here:  http://cknotes.com/chilkat-binary-encoding-list

// Convert from hex to base64
Dim b64 As String
b64 = crypt.ReEncode(hex,"hex","base64")
System.DebugLog("base64: " + b64)

// Convert from base64 to base32
Dim b32 As String
b32 = crypt.ReEncode(b64,"base64","base32")
System.DebugLog("base32: " + b32)

// Convert from base32 back to hex
hex = crypt.ReEncode(b32,"base32","hex")
System.DebugLog("hex: " + hex)
