The Base64 Extender, P6Base64, enables you to encode and decode text and binary data using the Base64 content transfer encoding scheme defined in RFC1113. Input to the Base64 encoder may be of any type except arrays, which are unsupported and make no sense in this context. Once you have loaded the extender, encoding or decoding a string requires only a simple function call.
Although developed and approved by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) for encoding binary attachments for email, the coding scheme has many other uses. Following is a sample of the ways that the author intends to employ them.
Your version of WinBatch must support Interface Level 4. This means versions 2000a or better.
To load the extender:
AddExtender("P6Base64.dll")
WIL Base64 Encoding and Decoding Extender Installation: Run the SETUP.WBT file to install the extender. Ver 41001 02 Mar 2011 Substitute the default line length of 72 for the third argument to function Base64File_P6C, so that its signature conforms to the documentation. Since the constants are now defined in P6Base64.WEH, they should now appear in living color, just like real WIL constants. Add the corresponding .lib file, for use by any brave souls who want to link the library into their own C and C++ code. Other than noting this corrective action, there being no pressing need to update the help file and other documentation, it remains unchanged and subject to the cosmetic issues noted in the initial release, version 41000, dated 22 May 2005. Ver 41000 22 May 2005 This is the initial release. While I believe it to be stable and fully functional, you should treat it as beta software for at least the next three months. KNOWN ISSUES 1) Although the defined constants work, they are not being colored in the editor. 2) The help file was created with an evaluation copy of a help tool. Hence, it does not yet bear my copyright notice.
