Understanding EncryptStringENC and DecryptStringENC in Python and C/C++
Chilkat provides API’s that are identical across a variety of different programming languages. One difficulty in doing this is in handling strings. Different programming languages pass strings in different ways. In some programming languages, such as Python or C/C++, a “string” is simply a sequence of bytes terminated by a null. (I’m referring to “multibyte” […]
Email “Received” Headers

Helpful Hints for Monitoring Progress in iOS Applications
This is some advice from an iOS application developer using Chilkat FTP2. It is about monitoring the progress of an FTP upload or download, but it’s a technique that can be considered for updating the UI for any long-running operation that provides percent-done event callbacks: “It took me a while to avoid all the problems […]
