[flexcoders] Re: Decoding output of Flex Base64encoder in C++
Turns out that modpbase64 doesn't like the line breaks (not sure yet if it is a configuration issue). Anyhow, I can disable line breaks with the encoder and be good to go. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Oleg Sivokon wrote: > > Adobe encoder can conditionally ad linebreaks, that is all the difference > between all RFCs basically.

I must have slept through that class. So, if it is really simple, can you provide some assistance with an example that works with Flex Base64encoder (in C/C++)? I've tried a number of libraries (including modpbase64 -- used by Google Chrome and Google Gears), and can only get decoding of text files to work. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Oleg Sivokon wrote: > > Adobe encoder can conditionally ad linebreaks, that is all the difference > between all RFCs basically.

Would it not be better if you kept your snide comments to yourself? Seriously, get over yourself. I only posted to flexcoders after extensive trial and error. If it was the simple (for me), I'd have done it already. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Tom Chiverton wrote: > > On Tuesday 06 Jul 2010 16:00:08 you wrote: > > point me to a C++ library or implementation of base64 decode that works > > with Adobe Flex Base64encoder?

[flexcoders] Re: Decoding output of Flex Base64encoder in C++
I'm not concerned so much with the speed of encoding on the client side as much as correctness. So, unless the SDK Base64encoder is faulty, I'd like to stick with it. My real concern is how to properly decode the base64 string it produces on the server. I've tried a number of C/C++ libraries and have yet to find one that decodes text files and binary files encoded by Flex (or I'm doing something very wrong). --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Oleg Sivokon wrote: > > http://blooddy.by/en/ > I'd recommend this library instead, it is much faster then the one from the > SDK.

[flexcoders] Decoding output of Flex Base64encoder in C++
I've developed web services in C++ and have implemented the ability to provide a base 64 encoded string to send files with other meta data. While I have successfully decoded the string when the encoded data is a text file, images and other binary files are not decoding correctly. Can you point me to a C++ library or implementation of base64 decode that works with Adobe Flex Base64encoder? What RFC does the Flex encode/decode implement? Joe
