| 16 | =head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 | BIO_f_base64() returns the base64 BIO method. This is a filter
|
|---|
| 19 | BIO that base64 encodes any data written through it and decodes
|
|---|
| 20 | any data read through it.
|
|---|
| 21 |
|
|---|
| 22 | Base64 BIOs do not support BIO_gets() or BIO_puts().
|
|---|
| 23 |
|
|---|
| 24 | BIO_flush() on a base64 BIO that is being written through is
|
|---|
| 25 | used to signal that no more data is to be encoded: this is used
|
|---|
| 26 | to flush the final block through the BIO.
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | The flag BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL can be set with BIO_set_flags()
|
|---|
| 29 | to encode the data all on one line or expect the data to be all
|
|---|
| 30 | on one line.
|
|---|
| 31 |
|
|---|
| 32 | =head1 NOTES
|
|---|
| 33 |
|
|---|
| 34 | Because of the format of base64 encoding the end of the encoded
|
|---|
| 35 | block cannot always be reliably determined.
|
|---|

| 41 | =head1 EXAMPLES
|
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | Base64 encode the string "Hello World\n" and write the result
|
|---|
| 44 | to standard output:
|
|---|
| 45 |
|
|---|
| 46 | BIO *bio, *b64;
|
|---|
| 47 | char message[] = "Hello World \n";
|
|---|
| 48 |
|
|---|
| 49 | b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
|
|---|
| 50 | bio = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
|
|---|
| 51 | BIO_push(b64, bio);
|
|---|
| 52 | BIO_write(b64, message, strlen(message));
|
|---|
| 53 | BIO_flush(b64);
|
|---|
| 54 |
|
|---|
| 55 | BIO_free_all(b64);
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | Read Base64 encoded data from standard input and write the decoded
|
|---|
| 58 | data to standard output:
|
|---|
| 59 |
|
|---|
| 60 | BIO *bio, *b64, *bio_out;
|
|---|
| 61 | char inbuf[512];
|
|---|
| 62 | int inlen;
|
|---|
| 63 |
|
|---|
| 64 | b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
|
|---|
| 65 | bio = BIO_new_fp(stdin, BIO_NOCLOSE);
|
|---|
| 66 | bio_out = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
|
|---|
| 67 | BIO_push(b64, bio);
|
|---|
| 68 | while ((inlen = BIO_read(b64, inbuf, 512)) > 0)
|
|---|
| 69 | BIO_write(bio_out, inbuf, inlen);
|
|---|
| 70 |
|
|---|
| 71 | BIO_flush(bio_out);
|
|---|
| 72 | BIO_free_all(b64);
|
|---|
| 73 |
|
|---|
| 74 | =head1 BUGS
|
|---|
| 75 |
|
|---|
| 76 | The ambiguity of EOF in base64 encoded data can cause additional
|
|---|
| 77 | data following the base64 encoded block to be misinterpreted.
|
|---|
| 78 |
|
|---|
| 79 | There should be some way of specifying a test that the BIO can perform
|
|---|
| 80 | to reliably determine EOF (for example a MIME boundary).
