SYNOPSIS

#include <sasl/saslutil.h>
int sasl_encode64(const char *in, unsigned inlen, char *out, unsigned
outmax, unsigned *outlen);
DESCRIPTION
Use the sasl_encode64() interface to convert an octet string into a
base64 string. This routine is useful for SASL profiles that use
base64, such as the IMAP (IMAP4) and POP (POP_AUTH) profiles. The out‐
put is null-terminated. If outlen is non-NULL, the length is placed in
the outlen.
PARAMETERS
in Input data.
inlen The length of the input data.
out The output data. The value of out can be the same as
in. However, there must be enough space.
outlen The length of the actual output.
outmax The maximum size of the output buffer.
RETURN VALUESsasl_encode64() returns an integer that corresponds to a SASL error
code.
ERRORS
SASL_OK The call to sasl_encode64() was successful.
SASL_BUFOVER The output buffer was too small.
