__EXPORT char * b64Decode (char * src, char * dest = NULL) [related]

Decode a string using base64 coding. Destination size should be at least strlen(src)+1. Destination will be a string, so is always terminated . This function is deprecated, base64 can use binary source, not only string use overloaded b64Decode.

Returns:

string coded

Parameters:

src source buffer
dest destination buffer. If NULL src is used

__EXPORT size_t b64Decode (const char * src, unsigned char * dst, size_t dstsize) [related]

Decode a string using base64 coding. Destination size should be at least strlen(src)/4*3. Destination are not string terminated (It's just a octet stream).

Returns:

number of octets written into destination buffer

Parameters:

src source string
dst destination octet buffer
dstsize destination buffer size

__EXPORT String b64Decode (const String & src) [related]

Decode a STL string using base64 coding into an STL String. Destination size should be at least strlen(src)/4*3. Destination are not string terminated (It's just a octet stream).

Returns:

decoded string

Parameters:

src source string

__EXPORT size_t b64Decode (const String & src, unsigned char * dst, size_t dstsize) [related]

Decode a string using base64 coding. Destination size should be at least strlen(src)/4*3. Destination are not string terminated (It's just a octet stream).

Returns:

number of octets written into destination buffer

Parameters:

src source string
dst destination octet buffer
dstsize destination buffer size

__EXPORT char * b64Encode (const char * source, char * dest, size_t size) [related]

Encode a string using base64 coding. Destination size should be at least strlen(src)/4*3+1. Destination is string terminated. This function is deprecated, coded stream can contain terminator character use overloaded b64Encode instead.

Returns:

destination buffer

Parameters:

source source string
dest destination octet buffer
size destination buffer size

__EXPORT size_t b64Encode (const unsigned char * src, size_t srcsize, char * dst, size_t dstsize) [related]

Encode a octet stream using base64 coding. Destination size should be at least (srcsize+2)/3*4+1. Destination will be a string, so is always terminated (unless you pass dstsize == 0).

Returns:

size of string written not counting terminator

Parameters:

src source buffer
srcsize source buffer size
dst destination buffer
dstsize destination buffer size

__EXPORT String b64Encode (const String & src) [related]

Encode a STL string using base64 coding into a STL string

Returns:

base 64 encoded string

Parameters:

src source string

__EXPORT String b64Encode (const unsigned char * src, size_t srcsize) [related]

Encode a octet stream using base64 coding into a STL string

Returns:

base 64 encoded string

Parameters:

src source buffer
srcsize source buffer size

__EXPORT char * urlDecode (char * source, char * dest = NULL) [related]

Decode an url parameter (ie '\%20' -> ' ')

Parameters:

source string
dest destination buffer. If NULL source is used

__EXPORT char * urlEncode (const char * source, char * dest, size_t size) [related]

Encode an url parameter (ie ' ' -> '+')

Parameters:

source string
dest destination buffer. Do not overlap with source
size destination buffer size.
