Get Contents of File as Base64

See more Encryption Examples

Demonstrates how to read the contents of a file and convert to a base64 string. C++

#include <CkBinData.h>

void ChilkatSample(void)
    {
    bool success = false;

    CkBinData bd;

    success = bd.LoadFile("qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg");
    if (success == false) {
        std::cout << "Failed to load file." << "\r\n";
        return;
    }

    std::cout << bd.getEncoded("base64") << "\r\n";

    // If you want mult-line base64:
    std::cout << "--" << "\r\n";
    std::cout << bd.getEncoded("base64_mime") << "\r\n";

    // If you want hex..
    std::cout << "--" << "\r\n";
    std::cout << bd.getEncoded("hex") << "\r\n";

    // etc.
    }
