Base64 decode in ABSL

May 02, 2017 at 08:12 PM | 207 Views | Last edit May 02, 2017 at 08:17 PM 2 rev.

Hello experts,

I need to decode a Base64 encoded String within an ABSL-script. I have checked already all built-in functions of BinaryObject/Binary and also the functions available in reuse library 'Binary' but was not able to find something which supports Base64 decoding.

Did I overlook anything obvious or is it as tricky as it seems to be?

Thank you in advance for any helpful hint.

Best regards,

Eugen

    Here is how it works:

    var base64EncodedString = "RXVnZW4gRG9qYW4="; // Base64-encoded value of String "Eugen Dojan"
var binary = Library::Binary.ParseFromBase64String( base64EncodedString );
var decodedString = binary.ToString();

    So in fact very simple because the ToString() function of Binary does an implict base64 decoding.
