+ BIO_f_base64 - base64 BIO
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/bio.h>
+ #include <openssl/evp.h>
+
+ BIO_METHOD * BIO_f_base64(void);
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+BIO_f_base64() returns the base64 BIO method. This is a filter
+BIO that base64 encodes any data written through it and decodes
+any data read through it.
+
+Base64 BIOs do not support BIO_gets() or BIO_puts().
+
+BIO_flush() on a base64 BIO that is being written through is
+used to signal that no more data is to be encoded: this is used
+to flush the final block through the BIO.
+
+The flag BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL can be set with BIO_set_flags()
+to encode the data all on one line or expect the data to be all
+on one line.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+Because of the format of base64 encoding the end of the encoded
+block cannot always be reliably determined.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+BIO_f_base64() returns the base64 BIO method.
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+Base64 encode the string "Hello World\n" and write the result
+to standard output:
+
+ BIO *bio, *b64;
+ char message[] = "Hello World \n";
+
+ b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
+ bio = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
+ bio = BIO_push(b64, bio);
+ BIO_write(bio, message, strlen(message));
+ BIO_flush(bio);
+
+ BIO_free_all(bio);
+
+Read Base64 encoded data from standard input and write the decoded
+data to standard output:
+
+ BIO *bio, *b64, bio_out;
+ char inbuf[512];
+ int inlen;
+ char message[] = "Hello World \n";
+
+ b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64());
+ bio = BIO_new_fp(stdin, BIO_NOCLOSE);
+ bio_out = BIO_new_fp(stdout, BIO_NOCLOSE);
+ bio = BIO_push(b64, bio);
+ while((inlen = BIO_read(bio, inbuf, strlen(message))) > 0)
+ BIO_write(bio_out, inbuf, inlen);
+
+ BIO_free_all(bio);
+
+=head1 BUGS
+
+The ambiguity of EOF in base64 encoded data can cause additional
+data following the base64 encoded block to be misinterpreted.
+
+There should be some way of specifying a test that the BIO can perform
+to reliably determine EOF (for example a MIME boundary).

+=head1 NAME
+
+ BIO_f_cipher - cipher BIO
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ #include <openssl/bio.h>
+ #include <openssl/evp.h>
+
+ BIO_METHOD * BIO_f_cipher(void);
+ void BIO_set_cipher(BIO *b,const EVP_CIPHER *cipher,
+ unsigned char *key, unsigned char *iv, int enc);
+ int BIO_get_cipher_status(BIO *b)
+ int BIO_get_cipher_ctx(BIO *b, EVP_CIPHER_CTX **pctx)
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+BIO_f_cipher() returns the cipher BIO method. This is a filter
+BIO that encrypts any data written through it, and decrypts any data
+read from it. It is a BIO wrapper for the cipher routines
+EVP_CipherInit(), EVP_CipherUpdate() and EVP_CipherFinal().
+
+Cipher BIOs do not support BIO_gets() or BIO_puts().
+
+BIO_flush() on an encryption BIO that is being written through is
+used to signal that no more data is to be encrypted: this is used
+to flush and possibly pad the final block through the BIO.
+
+BIO_set_cipher() sets the cipher of BIO <b> to B<cipher> using key B<key>
+and IV B<iv>. B<enc> should be set to 1 for encryption and zero for
+decryption.
+
+When reading from an encryption BIO the final block is automatically
+decrypted and checked when EOF is detected. BIO_get_cipher_status()
+is a BIO_ctrl() macro which can be called to determine whether the
+decryption operation was successful.
+
+BIO_get_cipher_ctx() is a BIO_ctrl() macro which retrieves the internal
+BIO cipher context. The retrieved context can be used in conjustion
+with the standard cipher routines to set it up. This is useful when
+BIO_set_cipher() is not flexible enough for the applications needs.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+When encrypting BIO_flush() B<must> be called to flush the final block
+through the BIO. If it is not then the final block will fail a subsequent
+decrypt.
+
+When decrypting an error on the final block is signalled by a zero
+return value from the read operation. A successful decrypt followed
+by EOF will also return zero for the final read. BIO_get_cipher_status()
+should be called to determine if the decrypt was successful.
+
+As always, if BIO_gets() or BIO_puts() support is needed then it can
+be achieved by preceding the cipher BIO with a buffering BIO.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+BIO_f_cipher() returns the cipher BIO method.
+
+BIO_set_cipher() does not return a value.
+
+BIO_get_cipher_status() returns 1 for a successful decrypt and 0
+for failure.
+
+BIO_get_cipher_ctx() currently always returns 1.

A null sink is useful if, for example, an application wishes to digest some
