b2a_l() will generate a base-62 encoded string big enough to encode
|
|
lengthinbits bits. So for example if os is 3 bytes long and lengthinbits is
|
|
17, then b2a_l() will generate a 3-character- long base-62 encoded string
|
|
(since 3 chars is sufficient to encode more than 2^17 values). If os is 3
|
|
bytes long and lengthinbits is 18 (or None), then b2a_l() will generate a
|
|
4-character string (since 4 chars are required to hold 2^18 values). Note
|
|
that if os is 3 bytes long and lengthinbits is 17, the least significant 7
|
|
bits of os are ignored.
|
|
|
|
Warning: if you generate a base-62 encoded string with b2a_l(), and then someone else tries to
|
|
decode it by calling a2b() instead of a2b_l(), then they will (potentially) get a different
|
|
string than the one you encoded! So use b2a_l() only when you are sure that the encoding and
|
|
decoding sides know exactly which lengthinbits to use. If you do not have a way for the
|
|
encoder and the decoder to agree upon the lengthinbits, then it is best to use b2a() and
|
|
a2b(). The only drawback to using b2a() over b2a_l() is that when you have a number of
|
|
bits to encode that is not a multiple of 8, b2a() can sometimes generate a base-62 encoded
|
|
string that is one or two characters longer than necessary.
