Function Documentation

◆ DecodeBase58() [1/2]

bool DecodeBase58	(	const char *	psz,
		std::vector< unsigned char > &	vchRet
	)

Decode a base58-encoded string (psz) into a byte vector (vchRet). return true if decoding is successful. psz cannot be nullptr.

◆ DecodeBase58() [2/2]

bool DecodeBase58	(	const std::string &	str,
		std::vector< unsigned char > &	vchRet
	)

Decode a base58-encoded string (str) into a byte vector (vchRet). return true if decoding is successful.

◆ DecodeBase58Check() [1/2]

bool DecodeBase58Check	(	const char *	psz,
		std::vector< unsigned char > &	vchRet
	)

Decode a base58-encoded string (psz) that includes a checksum into a byte vector (vchRet), return true if decoding is successful

◆ DecodeBase58Check() [2/2]

bool DecodeBase58Check	(	const std::string &	str,
		std::vector< unsigned char > &	vchRet
	)

Decode a base58-encoded string (str) that includes a checksum into a byte vector (vchRet), return true if decoding is successful

◆ EncodeBase58() [1/2]

std::string EncodeBase58	(	const unsigned char *	pbegin,
		const unsigned char *	pend
	)

Why base-58 instead of standard base-64 encoding?

Don't want 0OIl characters that look the same in some fonts and could be used to create visually identical looking data.
A string with non-alphanumeric characters is not as easily accepted as input.
E-mail usually won't line-break if there's no punctuation to break at.
Double-clicking selects the whole string as one word if it's all alphanumeric.Encode a byte sequence as a base58-encoded string. pbegin and pend cannot be nullptr, unless both are.

◆ EncodeBase58() [2/2]

std::string EncodeBase58 ( const std::vector< unsigned char > & vch )

Encode a byte vector as a base58-encoded string

◆ EncodeBase58Check()

std::string EncodeBase58Check ( const std::vector< unsigned char > & vchIn )

Encode a byte vector into a base58-encoded string, including checksum
