Hi there,

Has anyone encoded a file into base64binary in C#? I have requirement to attach a file to leads through a external site.

 

Has anyone got experience in this, if so can you please share?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

Please find the following code for convert file to base64Binary in C#.

 

private void btnEncode_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

  if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtInFile.Text))

  {

    FileStream fs = new FileStream(txtInFile.Text,

                                   FileMode.Open,

                                   FileAccess.Read);

    byte[] filebytes = new byte[fs.Length];

    fs.Read(filebytes, 0, Convert.ToInt32(fs.Length));

    string encodedData =

        Convert.ToBase64String(filebytes,                

                               Base64FormattingOptions.InsertLineBreaks);

    txtEncoded.Text = encodedData;

  }

}

 

private void btnDecode_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

  if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(txtOutFile.Text))

  {

    byte[] filebytes = Convert.FromBase64String(txtEncoded.Text);

    FileStream fs = new FileStream(txtOutFile.Text,

                                   FileMode.CreateNew,

                                  FileAccess.Write,

                                   FileShare.None);

    fs.Write(filebytes, 0, filebytes.Length);

    fs.Close();

  }

}
