(PHP ActiveX) Demonstrate Binary Data Encoding Methods

Demonstrates binary data encoding methods.

Note: This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.64 or later.

Chilkat ActiveX Downloads ActiveX for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Note: The php_com_dotnet.dll may need to be enabled inside of php.ini.

<?php

// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.BinData')
$binData = new COM("Chilkat.BinData");

// Append 10 bytes: 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08, 09
$binData->AppendEncoded('00010203040506070809','hex');

// Show that binData contains 10 bytes.
print 'num bytes = ' . $binData->NumBytes . "\n";

// Get as base64
print 'base64: ' . $binData->getEncoded('base64') . "\n";

// Get a chunk of the binary data.
// The 1st byte is at index 0.
// The output should be "02030405"
$offset = 2;
$numBytes = 4;
print 'chunk: ' . $binData->getEncodedChunk($offset,$numBytes,'hex') . "\n";

// Copy the bytes to a StringBuilder using the base64url encoding
// For versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0, use new COM('Chilkat_9_5_0.Chilkat.StringBuilder')
$sb = new COM("Chilkat.StringBuilder");
$binData->GetEncodedSb('base64url',$sb);
print 'base64url: ' . $sb->getAsString() . "\n";

// Remove a chunk from the binary data

$numBytes = 4;
$binData->RemoveChunk($offset,$numBytes);
// The bytes remaining are 00,01,06,07,08,and 09
print 'after removing chunk: ' . $binData->getEncoded('hex') . "\n";
