Base64 Encode a File

_LANGUAGE_ to Base64 encode the contents of a file. Rust

// Get the contents of a file into a base64 encoded string:
let fac = chilkat::FileAccess::new();
let Ok(str_base64) = fac.read_binary_to_encoded("c:/data/something.pdf", "base64") else {
    println!("{}", fac.last_error_text());
    return;
};

// Now write the string to a file:
if fac.write_entire_text_file("c:/data/something_pdf_base64.txt", &str_base64, "us-ascii", false).is_err() {
    println!("{}", fac.last_error_text());
    return;
}

println!("Success!");
