But there is still the problem with running off the end of the source - If the source is not a multiple of 3 bytes then the input iterator will run off the end of the input sequence which can cause an error.

Then when I decode, just pull off that number of bytes. Robert Ramey "Eames, Andrew" <andrew@cognex.com> wrote in message news:8F37BF6F420455468C4BD57DD6BE199004C613F8@cobra.pc.cognex.com... Hi, I'm trying to encode base64 data by composing base64_from_binary with transform_width but this doesn't appear to work correctly when the data is not a multiple of 3 long. What is the correct way to handle this - do I have to handle the padding myself by extending the input data and then patching the tail of the result?
