Decodes an encoded file or string of data.

Required Parameters

You must provide a value for one of the following fields, but not both:

  • data: Data to decode.
  • file: File to decode.

Optional Parameters

  • format: The format to use for decoding. Available values are BASE64, HEX, HTML, JIS, QP, URL, UU, and YENC. The default value is BASE64.
  • outfile: The file in which to store the decoded data. This is not supported for UU decoding, which uses the filename stored in the encoded file.
  • outformat: The format to use for decoded data. Available values are RAW, BASE64, and HEX. The default value is RAW.

Output Attributes

  • decodeddata: The decoded data.
  • format: The format used for decoding.
  • outfile: If you specified an input value for outfile, this is the file that contains the decoded data.

Example

The following ArcScript code, when placed in a Script connector, reads BASE64-encoded data from an input file at [FilePath] and decodes it:

<arc:set attr="decode.File" value="[FilePath]" />
<arc:call op="encDecode" in="decode" out="out">
  <arc:set attr="push.Data" value="[out.decodeddata]" />
  <arc:set attr="push.FileName" value="decoded.data" />
  <arc:push item="push" />
</arc:call>
