Receive Bytes as Encoded Text from a Socket
See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples
Demonstrates Socket.ReceiveBytesENC, which receives one delivery of binary data and returns it encoded as text using a named encoding.
Background. The ENC methods move raw binary data to and from printable text using a named encoding such as
base64 or hex, which is convenient for logging or for handling binary data as strings.Chilkat Chilkat2-Python Downloads
