| '''Summary'''

|Converts the specifed {{Code|$bytes}} ({{Code|xs:base64Binary}}, {{Code|xs:hexBinary}}) to a string:

* The UTF-8 default encoding can be overwritten with the optional {{Code|$encoding}} argument.

* By default, invalid characters will be rejected. If {{Code|$fallback}} is set to true, these characters will be replaced with the Unicode replacement character <code>FFFD</code> (&#xFFFD;).

| '''Errors'''

|{{Error|string|#Errors}} The input is an invalid XML string, or the wrong encoding has been specified.<br/>{{Error|BXCO0002|#Errors}} The specified encoding is invalid or not supported.

| '''Summary'''

|Converts the specified {{Code|$string}} to an {{Code|xs:base64Binary}} item. If the default encoding is chosen, conversion will be cheap, as strings and binaries are both internally represented as byte arrays.<br/>The UTF-8 default encoding can be overwritten with the optional {{Code|$encoding}} argument.

|{{Func|convert:integers-to-base64|$integers as xs:integer*|xs:base64Binary}}

| '''Summary'''

|Converts the specified {{Code|$integers}} to an item of type {{Code|xs:base64Binary}}:

* Only the first 8 bits of the supplied integers will be considered.

* Conversion of byte sequences is very efficient, as items of binary type are internally represented as byte arrays.

| '''Summary'''

|Returns the specified {{Code|$binary}} ({{Code|xs:base64Binary}}, {{Code|xs:hexBinary}}) as a sequence of bytes. The conversion is very cheap and takes no additional memory, as items of binary type are internally represented as byte arrays.

| '''Summary'''

|Converts {{Code|$number}} to a string, using the specified {{Code|$base}}, interpreting it as a 64-bit unsigned integer.<br />The first base elements of the sequence {{Code|'0',..,'9','a',..,'z'}} are used as digits.<br />Valid bases are {{Code|2, .., 36}}.<br />

| '''Summary'''

|Decodes an integer from {{Code|$string}}, using the specified {{Code|$base}}.<br /> The first base elements of the sequence {{Code|'0',..,'9','a',..,'z'}} are allowed as digits; case does not matter. <br />Valid bases are 2 - 36.<br /> If the supplied string contains more than 64 bits of information, the result will be truncated.

|{{Func|convert:encode-key|$key as xs:string|xs:string}}<br />{{Func|convert:encode-key|$key as xs:string, $lax as xs:boolean|xs:string}}<br />

| '''Summary'''

|Encodes the specified {{Code|$key}} (with the optional {{Code|$lax}} conversion method) to a valid NCName representation, which can be used to create an element node:

* If lax conversion is chosen, invalid characters are replaced with underscores or (when invalid as first character of an element name) prefixed with an underscore. The resulting string may be better readable, but it cannot necessarily be converted back to the original form.

This encoding is employed by the {{Code|direct}} conversion format in the [[JSON Module]] and the [[CSV Module]].

|{{Func|convert:decode-key|$key as xs:string|xs:string}}<br />{{Func|convert:decode-key|$key as xs:string, $lax as xs:boolean|xs:string}}<br />

| '''Summary'''

|Decodes the specified {{Code|$key}} (with the optional {{Code|$lax}} conversion method) to the original string representation.<br />Keys supplied to this function are usually element names from documents that have been created with the [[JSON Module]] or [[CSV Module]].

| '''Examples'''

|

* <code>convert:decode-key(name(<_0021/>))</code> yields <code>!</code>.

* <code>json:doc("doc.json")//* ! convert:decode-key(name())</code> yields the original string representation of all names of a JSON document.

| '''Errors'''

|{{Error|key|#Errors}} The specified key cannot be decoded to its original representation.
