class XMLRPC::Base64
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.
Public Class Methods
decode(str)

Decodes string str
with base64 and returns that value.
# File lib/xmlrpc/base64.rb, line 44 def Base64.decode(str) str.gsub(/\s+/, "").unpack("m")[0] end
encode(str)
click to toggle source
Encodes string str
with base64 and returns that value.
# File lib/xmlrpc/base64.rb, line 49 def Base64.encode(str) [str].pack("m") end
new(str, state = :dec)
click to toggle source
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.
# File lib/xmlrpc/base64.rb, line 21 def initialize(str, state = :dec) case state when :enc @str = Base64.decode(str) when :dec @str = str else raise ArgumentError, "wrong argument; either :enc or :dec" end end
Public Instance Methods

Returns the base64 encoded internal string.
