NAME

       gnutls_srp_base64_encode - Encode raw data using SRP-Base64

SYNOPSIS

       #include <gnutls/gnutls.h>

       int   gnutls_srp_base64_encode(const  gnutls_datum_t  *  data,  char  *
       result, size_t * result_size);

ARGUMENTS

       const gnutls_datum_t * data
                   contain the raw data

       char * result
                   the place where base64 data will be copied

       size_t * result_size
                   holds the size of the result

DESCRIPTION

       This function will convert the given data to printable data, using  the
       base64  encoding,  as used in the libsrp.  This is the encoding used in
       SRP password  files.   If  the  provided  buffer  is  not  long  enough
       GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER is returned.

       Warning!   This  base64  encoding is not the "standard" encoding, so do
       not use it for non-SRP purposes.

RETURNS

       GNUTLS_E_SHORT_MEMORY_BUFFER if the buffer given is not long enough, or
       0 on success.
