Detailed Description

Function Documentation

apr_base64_decode()

int apr_base64_decode	(	char *	plain_dst,
		const char *	coded_src
	)

Decode a string to plain text. On EBCDIC machines, the result is then converted to EBCDIC.

Parameters

plain_dst	The destination string for the plain text. A \0 is appended.
coded_src	The encoded string

Returns

the length of the plain text string (excluding the trailing \0)

apr_base64_decode_binary()

int int apr_base64_decode_binary	(	unsigned char *	plain_dst,
		const char *	coded_src
	)

Decode an string to plain text. This is the same as apr_base64_decode() except no \0 is appended and on EBCDIC machines, the conversion of the output to EBCDIC is left out.

Parameters

plain_dst	The destination string for the plain text. The string is not \0-terminated.
coded_src	The encoded string

Returns

the length of the plain text string

apr_base64_decode_len()

int int char int apr_base64_decode_len

(

const char *

coded_src

)

Determine the maximum buffer length required to decode the plain text string given the encoded string.

Parameters

coded_src

The encoded string

Returns

the maximum required buffer length for the plain text string

apr_base64_encode()

int apr_base64_encode	(	char *	coded_dst,
		const char *	plain_src,
		int	len_plain_src
	)

Encode a text string using base64encoding. On EBCDIC machines, the input is first converted to ASCII.

Parameters

coded_dst	The destination string for the encoded string. A \0 is appended.
plain_src	The original string in plain text
len_plain_src	The length of the plain text string

Returns

the length of the encoded string, including the trailing \0

apr_base64_encode_binary()

int int apr_base64_encode_binary	(	char *	coded_dst,
		const unsigned char *	plain_src,
		int	len_plain_src
	)

Encode an text string using base64encoding. This is the same as apr_base64_encode() except on EBCDIC machines, where the conversion of the input to ASCII is left out.

Parameters

coded_dst	The destination string for the encoded string. A \0 is appended.
plain_src	The original string in plain text
len_plain_src	The length of the plain text string

Returns

the length of the encoded string, including the trailing \0

apr_base64_encode_len()

int apr_base64_encode_len

(

int

len

)

Given the length of an un-encoded string, get the length of the encoded string.

Parameters

len	the length of an unencoded string.

Returns

the length of the string after it is encoded, including the trailing \0

apr_pbase64_decode()

int int char* apr_pbase64_decode	(	apr_pool_t *	p,
		const char *	bufcoded
	)

Decode a base64 encoded string into memory allocated from a pool

Parameters

p	The pool to allocate from
bufcoded	The encoded string

Returns

The decoded string

apr_pbase64_encode()

int int char* apr_pbase64_encode	(	apr_pool_t *	p,
		const char *	string
	)

Encode a string into memory allocated from a pool in base 64 format

Parameters

p	The pool to allocate from
string	The plaintext string

Returns

The encoded string
