[VB6 equivalent: RSA_EncodeMsg]

Dim abData(3) As Byte
Dim abBlock() As Byte
Dim abCheck() As Byte
Dim nBlockLen As Integer

' Our message data, 4 bytes long
abData(0) = &HDE
abData(1) = &HAD
abData(2) = &HBE
abData(3) = &HEF
Console.WriteLine("DATA   =" & Cnv.ToHex(abData))
' Set up output block with correct size
nBlockLen = 64
' Encode ready for encryption with default algorithm
abBlock = Rsa.EncodeMsgForEncryption(nBlockLen, abData, Rsa.EME.PKCSv1_5)
If (abBlock.Length = 0) Then
    Console.WriteLine("Encoding Error")
    Exit Sub
End If
Console.WriteLine("BLOCK  =" & Cnv.ToHex(abBlock))

' Now encrypt this block using RSA_RawPublic
' ...
' ... and send to recipient ...
' ...
' who decrypts using RSA_RawPrivate to get the encoded block

' Recover the message from the encoded block
' How long is it?
abCheck = Rsa.DecodeMsgForEncryption(abBlock, Rsa.EME.PKCSv1_5)
If (abCheck.Length = 0) Then
    Console.WriteLine("Decryption Error")

End If

' Alternative using more-secure OAEP algorithm
abBlock = Rsa.EncodeMsgForEncryption(nBlockLen, abData, Rsa.EME.OAEP)
If (abBlock.Length = 0) Then
    Console.WriteLine("Encoding Error")
    Exit Sub
End If
Console.WriteLine("BLOCK  =" & Cnv.ToHex(abBlock))
' ...
abCheck = Rsa.DecodeMsgForEncryption(abBlock, Rsa.EME.OAEP)

    Console.WriteLine("Decryption Error")
    Exit Sub
End If
