Description
Calculates the HMAC value of a blob.
Applies to
CrypterObject object
Syntax
crypter.HMAC ( algorithm, variable, key)
Argument |
Description |
---|---|
crypter |
The name of the CrypterObject object. |
algorithm |
A value of the HMACAlgorithm enumerated type that specifies the type of HMAC algorithm. Values are:
|
variable |
A blob whose value is the data you want to process with HMAC. When using the system blob function to convert a string to a blob, it is recommended to specify its encoding argument to be EncodingANSI! (for English characters only) or EncodingUTF8!, otherwise, the default EncodingUTF16LE! will be used. |
key |
A blob specifying the secret key. |
Return value
Blob. Returns the result of the HMAC if it succeeds. If any argument's value is null, the method returns null. If an error occurs, throw the exception.
Examples
This statement encrypts the data using HMACMD5.
Blob lblb_data Blob lblb_key Blob lblb_hmac String ls_data lblb_data = Blob("Test HMAC", EncodingANSI!) lblb_key = Blob("Test HMAC Key", EncodingANSI!) CrypterObject lnv_CrypterObject lnv_CrypterObject = Create CrypterObject // Encrypt with HMAC lblb_hmac= lnv_CrypterObject.HMAC(HMACMD5!, lblb_data, lblb_key) Coderobject lnv_code Lnv_code = create coderobject //Encode the HMAC blob data to be hex data and output as a string Ls_data = lnv_code.hexencode(lblb_hmac)
