Mime / Base 64 encoding

Question

I need a way to encode a string to Mime/Base64 in Delphi 7 and PHP

These two encoders must be compatible :)

Answer 1

The unit EncdDecd has been included since Delphi 6; below are the Mime compatible base64 functions it contains.

This cached post from FlexVN (the original post is not always on-line) explains how to do the base64 thing between PHP and Delphi using the EncdDecd unit.

unit EncdDecd;

interface

uses Classes, SysUtils;

procedure EncodeStream(Input, Output: TStream);
procedure DecodeStream(Input, Output: TStream);
function  EncodeString(const Input: string): string;
function  DecodeString(const Input: string): string;

function  DecodeBase64(const Input: AnsiString): TBytes;
function  EncodeBase64(const Input: Pointer; Size: Integer): AnsiString;
