Hi,
I wonder if there is something wrong in the erlang documentation->STDLIB
Reference->base64? The documentation says:
base64
MODULE
base64
MODULE SUMMARY
Implements base 64 encode and decode, see RFC2045.
DESCRIPTION
Implements base 64 encode and decode, see RFC2045.
EXPORTS
encode(Data) -> Base64
encode_to_string(Data) -> Base64String
Types:
Data = string() | binary()
Base64 = binary()
Base64String = string()
Encodes a plain ASCII string into base64. The result will be 33% larger
than the data.
decode(Base64) -> Data
decode_to_string(Base64) -> DataString
mime_decode(Base64) -> Data
mime_decode_string(Base64) -> DataString
Types:
Base64 = string() | binary()
Data = binary()
DataString = string()
Decodes a base64 encoded string to plain ASCII. The string should only
consist of characters in the base64 set, see RFC4648. mime_decode/1 and
mime_decode_to_string/1 strips away illegal characters, while decode/1 and
decode_to_string/1 fails if an illegal charactrer is found.

All the functions is ok except the last one, mime_decode_string/1:
11> base64:mime_decode_string(base64:encode_to_string("我们")).
** exception error: undefined function base64:mime_decode_string/1.
Is this an error in the library reference manual?
Thank you!
