Base32.cfc - Base32 Encoding And Decoding In ColdFusion

by Ben Nadel (on Google+)

While ColdFusion has native methods for converting to Base64 and Hex, it doesn't have a way to encode Base32 values. As such, I've created this ColdFusion component that has static methods for encoding and decoding values using the Base32 alphabet.

• decode( String ) :: String
• decodeBinary( Binary ) :: Binary
• encode( String ) :: String
• decodeBinary( Binary ) :: Binary

Note: If you use the string-base encoding functions, the strings are currently assumed to be in UTF-8 encoding.
