Friends And Related Function Documentation
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
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
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
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
Examples:
url1.cpp.
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
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
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
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
Examples:
url1.cpp.
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
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.
