11 * Encodes @len bytes of data pointed to by @src by base224 encoding.
12 * Stores them in @dest and returns the number of bytes the output
15 uns base224_encode(byte *dest, const byte *src, uns len);
17 * Decodes @len bytes of data pointed to by @src from base224 encoding.
18 * All invalid characters are ignored. The result is stored into @dest
19 * and length of the result is returned.
21 uns base224_decode(byte *dest, const byte *src, uns len);
24 * Use this macro to calculate @base224_encode() output buffer size.
25 * It can happen 4 more bytes would be needed, this macro takes care
28 #define BASE224_ENC_LENGTH(x) (((x)*8+38)/39*5)
31 * When called for BASE224_IN_CHUNK-byte chunks, the result will be
32 * always BASE224_OUT_CHUNK bytes long. If a longer block is split
33 * to such chunks, the result will be identical.
