BIO_f_base64(3)                     OpenSSL                    BIO_f_base64(3)

NAME
       BIO_f_base64 - base64 BIO filter
SYNOPSIS
        #include <openssl/bio.h>
        #include <openssl/evp.h>
        BIO_METHOD *   BIO_f_base64(void);
DESCRIPTION
       BIO_f_base64() returns the base64 BIO method. This is a filter BIO that
       base64 encodes any data written through it and decodes any data read
       through it.
       Base64 BIOs do not support BIO_gets() or BIO_puts().
       BIO_flush() on a base64 BIO that is being written through is used to
       signal that no more data is to be encoded: this is used to flush the
       final block through the BIO.
       The flag BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL can be set with BIO_set_flags() to
       encode the data all on one line or expect the data to be all on one
       line.
NOTES
       Because of the format of base64 encoding the end of the encoded block
       cannot always be reliably determined.
RETURN VALUES
       BIO_f_base64() returns the base64 BIO method.
EXAMPLES
       Base64 encode the string "Hello World\n" and write the result to
       standard output:
        BIO *bio, *b64;
        char message[] = "Hello World \n";
        b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
        bio = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
        BIO_push(b64, bio);
        BIO_write(b64, message, strlen(message));
        BIO_flush(b64);
        BIO_free_all(b64);
       Read Base64 encoded data from standard input and write the decoded data
       to standard output:
        BIO *bio, *b64, *bio_out;
        char inbuf[512];
        int inlen;
        b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
        bio = BIO_new_fp(stdin, BIO_NOCLOSE);
        bio_out = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
        BIO_push(b64, bio);
        while((inlen = BIO_read(b64, inbuf, 512)) > 0)
               BIO_write(bio_out, inbuf, inlen);
        BIO_flush(bio_out);
        BIO_free_all(b64);
BUGS
       The ambiguity of EOF in base64 encoded data can cause additional data
       following the base64 encoded block to be misinterpreted.
       There should be some way of specifying a test that the BIO can perform
       to reliably determine EOF (for example a MIME boundary).
