buffer_base64_encode(buffer, offset, size);
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| buffer | The index of the buffer to use. |
| offset | The data offset value. |
| size | The size of the buffer. |
Returns: String
This function will convert the data from the given buffer into a
base64 format encoded string. This is a commonly used encoding
scheme that is often used for any media that needs to be stored or
transferred over the internet as text, and renders the output
unreadable to the human eye. To use this you need to specify an
already created buffer, the offset value (which is the point within
the buffer at which you wish to start encoding) as well as the
size, in bytes, of the buffer memory to encode.
var b_str = buffer_base64_encode(buff, 0, buffer_get_size(buff))
The above code will create encode the full data stored in the buffer indexed by the variable "buff", and store the returned string in the local variable "b_str".
