FBB::IBase64Stream(3) Std::istream performing base64 encoding and decoding

SYNOPSIS

#include <bobcat/ibase64stream>
Linking option: -lbobcat

DESCRIPTION

FBB::IBase64Stream objects may be used to base64 encode or decrypt information that is available on a separate std::istream.

The class IBase64Stream is a class template, using a FBB::CryptType template non-type parameter. Objects of the class FBB::IBase64Stream<FBB::ENCODE> base64 encode the information they receive, objects of the class FBB::IBase64Stream<FBB::DECRYPT> base64 decode the information they receive.

NAMESPACE

FBB
All constructors, members, operators and manipulators, mentioned in this man-page, are defined in the namespace FBB.

INHERITS FROM

FBB::IBase64Streambuf (private),
std::istream

CONSTRUCTORS

o
IBase64Stream<CryptType>(std::istream &in, size_t bufSize = 100):
This constructor initializes a std::istream providing it with an FBB::IBase64Streambuf stream buffer. The IBase64Streambuf's constructor receives all arguments that are passed to this constructor.
- IBase64Stream<ENCRYPT> objects perform base64 encoding;
- IBase64Stream<DECRYPT> objects perform base64 decoding;
- IBase64Stream<CryptType> objects obtain the bytes to encode or decode from std::istream &in;
- The internally used IFilterStreambuf is initialized with a buffer of size bufSize, using a lower bound of 100.

INHERITED MEMBERS

Since the class uses public derivation from std::istream, all members of this class can be used.

EXAMPLE

#include "../ibase64stream"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
using namespace FBB;
int main()
{
    IBase64Stream<ENCRYPT> in(cin);
}
