Function Documentation

  int base64_decode (unsigned char * dst, size_t * dlen, const unsigned char * src, size_t slen)

Decode a base64-formatted buffer.

Parameters:
    dst destination buffer
    dlen size of the buffer
    src source buffer
    slen amount of data to be decoded

Returns:
    0 if successful, POLARSSL_ERR_BASE64_BUFFER_TOO_SMALL, or POLARSSL_ERR_BASE64_INVALID_DATA if the input data is not correct. *dlen is always updated to reflect the amount of data that has (or would have) been written.

Note:
    Call this function with *dlen = 0 to obtain the required buffer size in *dlen
