Thanks. I changed the code to use the llBase64ToInteger and llIntegerToBase64 methods. It is a lot smaller and easier to manage now. --[[User:Dedric Mauriac|Dedric Mauriac]] 01:36, 5 January 2008 (PST) | Thanks.

Looks good, still a few spots that could be optimized. I should point out that the resulting list will require about 9 to 10 times more memory then the string (which is why my functions work with base64, only a 4/3's expansion). A 2k strings would result in a list that would eat all the memory, even a 1k string would be dangerous, not good. This is why I haven't made a function that does byte to list myself (the only reason I have base64&hex <-> dword-list functions is so I can handle encryption keys expressed as lists). -- [[User:Strife Onizuka|Strife Onizuka]] 02:00, 5 January 2008 (PST) | |||

These two functions are going to be very slow and they have a large memory footprint. This is what llBase64ToInteger and llIntegerToBase64 are good for. Suppose it's time I post some of the new functions to the Combined Library. -- Strife Onizuka 09:58, 3 January 2008 (PST)
