Yes. I'm shocked if it doesn't already have one.
What are the expectations from a library claiming the moniker "Boost.Base64?" Does it support just radix=64? Or is it a general purpose library that works with any radix and a user-supplied alphabet? If the latter is it limited to using integral types or does it work with multiprecision integers? Does it use std::string? Fixed size buffers? Does it work with Allocators? Which base-64 alphabets does it support? MIME? UTF-7? RFC3548? RFC4648? Does it support url-encoding and decoding i.e. ("modified Base64 for URL")? Please be specific in the type of base64 library you are proposing. Thanks
