Base 64 component

Component to allow base 64 encoding and decoding. Sometimes when communicating raw binary data it is useful to perform base 64 encoding to ensure that none of your data bytes trigger any escape codes or other special case conditions. Base64 converts your binary data into readable data using standard ASCII characters so you can be fairly certain that the data you send is the same as the data that is received.

Decodes a base64 encoded string into an array of bytes. Populates the BinaryData parameter array with the decoded data. Returns the number of decoded data bytes. 
- BYTE BinaryData
Variable to hold the decoded binary data 
- STRING Base64Data
Data string you wish to decode 
- UINT Return


Encode

Encode
Encodes an array of bytes into a base64 encoded string 
- BYTE BinaryData
Raw binary data array you wish to encode 
- UINT ByteCount
Number of bytes of data to encode 
- STRING Return
