Description
The Base64Encode
method is a static extension method provided by the SandboxSystemExtensions
class. It is used to encode a given plain text string into a Base64 encoded string. This method is useful for encoding data that needs to be safely transmitted over media that are designed to deal with textual data. This encoding helps to ensure that the data remains intact without modification during transport.
Usage
To use the Base64Encode
method, simply call it on a string instance that you wish to encode. This method is an extension method, so it can be called as if it were a method on the System.String
class.
Parameters:
plainText
: A System.String
representing the text to be encoded.
Returns: A System.String
that represents the Base64 encoded version of the input string.
Example
// Example usage of Base64Encode method
string originalText = "Hello, World!";
string base64EncodedText = originalText.Base64Encode();
// Output: "SGVsbG8sIFdvcmxkIQ=="
System.Console.WriteLine(base64EncodedText);
