ruby--ruby/lib/base64.rb
mame 2c1c462747 * pack.c (pack_pack, pack_unpack): 'm0' format (base64) complies with
RFC 4648.  It adds no line feed when encoding, and raise ArgumentError
  if the encoded string contains non-alphabet (including CR and LF).

* lib/base64.rb: added.  This provides encoding/decoding method for
  Base64 in standard RFC 2045, Base64 in standard RFC 4648 and ``Base 64
  Encoding with URL and Filename SafeAlphabet'' in RFC 4648.

* test_pack.c, test/base64/test_base64.rb: add tests for above.

#
# = base64.rb: methods for base64-encoding and -decoding stings
#
# The Base64 module provides for the encoding (#encode64, #strict_encode64,
# #urlsafe_encode64) and decoding (#decode64, #strict_decode64,
# #urlsafe_decode64) of binary data using a Base64 representation.
#
# == Example
#
# A simple encoding and decoding.
#
# require "base64"
#
# enc = Base64.encode64('Send reinforcements')
# # -> "U2VuZCByZWluZm9yY2VtZW50cw==\n"
# plain = Base64.decode64(enc)
# # -> "Send reinforcements"
#
# The purpose of using base64 to encode data is that it translates any
# binary data into purely printable characters.
module Base64
module_function
# Returns the Base64-encoded version of +bin+.
# This method complies with RFC 2045.
# Line feeds are added to every 60 encoded charactors.
#
# require 'base64'
# Base64.encode64("Now is the time for all good coders\nto learn Ruby")

# non-alphabet characters. Note that CR or LF are also rejected.
