Classes

XMLRPC::Base64

Description

This class is necessary for xmlrpc4r to determine that a string should be transmitted base64-encoded and not as a raw-string. You can use XMLRPC::Base64 on the client and server-side as a parameter and/or return-value.

Class Methods

XMLRPC::Base64.new( str, state = :dec )

Creates a new XMLRPC::Base64 instance with string str as the internal string. When state is :dec it assumes that the string str is not in base64 format (perhaps already decoded), otherwise if state is :enc it decodes str and stores it as the internal string.

XMLRPC::Base64.decode( str )

Decodes string str with base64 and returns that value.

XMLRPC::Base64.encode( str )

Encodes string str with base64 and returns that value.

Instance Methods

XMLRPC::Base64#decoded

Returns the internal string decoded.

XMLRPC::Base64#encoded

Returns the internal string encoded with base64.
