base64.h File Reference

Base64 encodes a buffer and returns the resulting string.

Parameters:

input

The buffer that needs to be base64 encoded.

Base64_Encoder takes as a parameter a pointer to a BUFFER. If input is NULL then Base64_Encoder returns NULL. The size of the BUFFER pointed to by input may be zero. If when allocating memory to produce the encoding a failure occurs, then Base64_Encoder returns NULL. Otherwise Base64_Encoder returns a pointer to a STRING. That string contains the base 64 encoding of the input. This encoding of input will not contain embedded line feeds.

Returns:

A STRING_HANDLE containing the base64 encoding of input.

Base64 decodes the buffer pointed to by source and returns the resulting buffer.

Parameters:

source

A base64 encoded string buffer.

This function decodes the string pointed at by source using base64 decoding and returns the resulting buffer. If source is NULL then Base64_Decoder returns NULL. If the string pointed to by source is zero length then the handle returned refers to a zero length buffer. If there is any memory allocation failure during the decode or if the source string has an invalid length for a base 64 encoded string then Base64_Decoder returns NULL.

Returns:

A BUFFER_HANDLE pointing to a buffer containing the result of base64 decoding source.

Base64 encodes the buffer pointed to by source and returns the resulting string.

Parameters:

source	The buffer that needs to be base64 encoded.
size	The size.

This function produces a STRING_HANDLE containing the base64 encoding of the buffer pointed to by source, having the size as given by size. If source is NULL then Base64_Encode_Bytes returns NULL If source is not NULL and size is zero, then Base64_Encode_Bytes produces an empty STRING_HANDLE. Otherwise, Base64_Encode_Bytes produces a STRING_HANDLE containing the Base64 representation of the buffer. In case of any errors, Base64_Encode_Bytes returns NULL.].

Returns:

NULL in case an error occurs or a STRING_HANDLE containing the base64 encoding of input.
