Hello,
I try to figure out how to use the Base64MimeConverter class to encode binary (image content from a WAFile instance) to base64 format, so I can safely upload it into a MySQL BLOB.
However when I encode with:
encode := Base64MimeConverter mimeEncode: (ReadStream on: ((aFile contents) asString)).
I can save it in a BLOB without problem.
However the oposit operation is not working:
decode := Base64MimeConverter mimeDecodeToBytes: (ReadStream on: (result valueNamed: 'image')).
I got the following error:
MessageNotUnderstood: SmallInteger>>asciiValue
from the Base64MimeConverter>>nextValue method.
It looks like it is expecting a char but it gots a SmallInteger.
Does it come from the initial conversion? Or should I convert the initial content a Stream of char? How?
Thanks
Hilaire
