For some reason I cannot correctly save and load keys using Base64.
If I save a key using a HexEncoder, then load the key it works every
time. On the other hand, if I save a key using a Base64Encoder and
then try to load the key it works about half the time, the rest of the
time I get a BER decode error. Please see the below code - using
HexEncoder works, Base64Encoder fails. Am I doing something
incorrectly? Any input is greatly appreciated.

//cout << endl << priv << endl << endl;
privateKey.Load(StringSource(priv, true, new
Base64Decoder()).Ref()); /*FAIL*/
//privateKey.Load(StringSource(priv, true, new
HexDecoder()).Ref());
}
catch (Exception e)
{
cout << e.what() << endl;
}
return 0;
}
