Detailed Description

Base64 encoding and decoding utilities.

This nested class provides methods for encoding and decoding data in Base64 format, which is commonly used for representing binary data in a text format that can be safely transmitted in environments that only support ASCII.

Member Function Documentation

encode()

std::string qb::crypto::base64::encode ( const std::string & input )

staticnoexcept

Encode a string to Base64.

Converts a string containing arbitrary binary data to a Base64-encoded string that contains only ASCII characters.

Parameters

Returns

The Base64-encoded string

decode()

std::string qb::crypto::base64::decode ( const std::string & base64 )

staticnoexcept

Decode a Base64 string.

Converts a Base64-encoded string back to its original binary form.

Parameters

base64

The Base64-encoded string to decode

Returns

The decoded binary string
