I want to base64 encode a string, and decode it in C language with OpenSSL
api.
I encoded in php
like that:
<?php
echo base64_encode("aaa");
?>
result is "YWFh"
Then decode it in C
like that:
int base64_decode(char *str,int str_len,char *decode,int decode_buffer_len){
int len=0;
BIO *b64,*bmem;
b64=BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
bmem=BIO_new_mem_buf(str,str_len);
bmem=BIO_push(b64,bmem);
len=BIO_read(bmem,decode,str_len);
decode[len]=0;
BIO_free_all(bmem);
return 0;
}
result is NULL, nothing decoded.
Can't decode the string encoded before.
I tried to use these command lines to test:
$echo "aaa" | openssl enc -base64
output: YWFhCg==
$echo "YWFhCg==" | openssl enc -base64 -d
output: aaa
What's the difference between base64_encode in php
and openssl
?What causes this?
