这是一个紧凑的Objective-C版本，作为NSData的类别。这需要一些思考……

@implementation NSData (DataUtils)

static char base64[] = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/";

- (NSString *)newStringInBase64FromData
{
 NSMutableString *dest = [[NSMutableString alloc] initWithString:@""];
 unsigned char * working = (unsigned char *)[self bytes];
 int srcLen = [self length];

 // tackle the source in 3's as conveniently 4 Base64 nibbles fit into 3 bytes
 for (int i=0; i<srcLen; i += 3)
 {
  // for each output nibble
  for (int nib=0; nib<4; nib++)
  {
   // nibble:nib from char:byt
   int byt = (nib == 0)?0:nib-1;
   int ix = (nib+1)*2;

   if (i+byt >= srcLen) break;

   // extract the top bits of the nibble, if valid
   unsigned char curr = ((working[i+byt] << (8-ix)) & 0x3F);

   // extract the bottom bits of the nibble, if valid
   if (i+nib < srcLen) curr |= ((working[i+nib] >> ix) & 0x3F);

   [dest appendFormat:@"%c", base64[curr]];
  }
 }

 return dest;
}

@end

如果需要，可以通过扩大'byt'的范围并在(2-byt)后面附加'dest'来添加填充。返回前的"="字符。

Category可以被添加到NSString中，这样:

@implementation NSString (StringUtils)

- (NSString *)newStringInBase64FromString
{
 NSData *theData = [NSData dataWithBytes:[self UTF8String] length:[self length]]; 

 return [theData newStringInBase64FromData];
}

@end

更好的解决方案:

NSData中有一个内置函数

[data base64Encoding]; //iOS < 7.0
[data base64EncodedStringWithOptions:NSDataBase64Encoding76CharacterLineLength]; //iOS >= 7.0

在这个问题最初发布的时候，人们可以理解地引导您使用第三方base64库，因为缺乏任何本地例程。但iOS 7引入了base64编码例程(这实际上只是暴露了iOS从iOS 4开始就有的私有方法)。

你可以使用NSData方法base64EncodedStringWithOptions:从NSData创建一个base-64字符串。

NSString *string = [data base64EncodedStringWithOptions:kNilOptions];

你可以使用initWithBase64EncodedString:options:将一个base-64字符串转换回NSData:

NSData *data = [[NSData alloc] initWithBase64EncodedString:string options:kNilOptions]; 

或者，在Swift中:

let string = data.base64EncodedString()

And

let data = Data(base64Encoded: string)

这是Objective C类别的一个很好的用例。

对于Base64编码:

#import <Foundation/NSString.h>

@interface NSString (NSStringAdditions)

+ (NSString *) base64StringFromData:(NSData *)data length:(int)length;

@end

-------------------------------------------

#import "NSStringAdditions.h"

static char base64EncodingTable[64] = {
  'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O', 'P',
  'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y', 'Z', 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f',
  'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v',
  'w', 'x', 'y', 'z', '0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', '+', '/'
};

@implementation NSString (NSStringAdditions)

+ (NSString *) base64StringFromData: (NSData *)data length: (int)length {
  unsigned long ixtext, lentext;
  long ctremaining;
  unsigned char input[3], output[4];
  short i, charsonline = 0, ctcopy;
  const unsigned char *raw;
  NSMutableString *result;

  lentext = [data length]; 
  if (lentext < 1)
    return @"";
  result = [NSMutableString stringWithCapacity: lentext];
  raw = [data bytes];
  ixtext = 0; 

  while (true) {
    ctremaining = lentext - ixtext;
    if (ctremaining <= 0) 
       break;        
    for (i = 0; i < 3; i++) { 
       unsigned long ix = ixtext + i;
       if (ix < lentext)
          input[i] = raw[ix];
       else
  input[i] = 0;
  }
  output[0] = (input[0] & 0xFC) >> 2;
  output[1] = ((input[0] & 0x03) << 4) | ((input[1] & 0xF0) >> 4);
  output[2] = ((input[1] & 0x0F) << 2) | ((input[2] & 0xC0) >> 6);
  output[3] = input[2] & 0x3F;
  ctcopy = 4;
  switch (ctremaining) {
    case 1: 
      ctcopy = 2; 
      break;
    case 2: 
      ctcopy = 3; 
      break;
  }

  for (i = 0; i < ctcopy; i++)
     [result appendString: [NSString stringWithFormat: @"%c", base64EncodingTable[output[i]]]];

  for (i = ctcopy; i < 4; i++)
     [result appendString: @"="];

  ixtext += 3;
  charsonline += 4;

  if ((length > 0) && (charsonline >= length))
    charsonline = 0;
  }     
  return result;
}

根据您的要求，我已经使用Swift 4创建了一个示例演示，您可以根据您的要求编码/解码字符串和图像。

因为这似乎是在base64编码和iphone上排名第一的谷歌，我想用上面的代码片段分享我的经验。

它是有效的，但是非常慢。在本机iphone上对随机图像(0.4 mb)进行基准测试需要37秒。主要原因可能是OOP的魔力——单字符nsstring等，只有在编码完成后才会自动释放。

这里发布的另一个建议(ab)使用openssl库，这感觉也有点过分。

下面的代码需要70毫秒——这是500倍的加速。这只做base64编码(解码将遵循一旦我遇到它)

+ (NSString *) base64StringFromData: (NSData *)data length: (int)length {
int lentext = [data length]; 
if (lentext < 1) return @"";

char *outbuf = malloc(lentext*4/3+4); // add 4 to be sure

if ( !outbuf ) return nil;

const unsigned char *raw = [data bytes];

int inp = 0;
int outp = 0;
int do_now = lentext - (lentext%3);

for ( outp = 0, inp = 0; inp < do_now; inp += 3 )
{
    outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[(raw[inp] & 0xFC) >> 2];
    outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[((raw[inp] & 0x03) << 4) | ((raw[inp+1] & 0xF0) >> 4)];
    outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[((raw[inp+1] & 0x0F) << 2) | ((raw[inp+2] & 0xC0) >> 6)];
    outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[raw[inp+2] & 0x3F];
}

if ( do_now < lentext )
{
    char tmpbuf[2] = {0,0};
    int left = lentext%3;
    for ( int i=0; i < left; i++ )
    {
        tmpbuf[i] = raw[do_now+i];
    }
    raw = tmpbuf;
    outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[(raw[inp] & 0xFC) >> 2];
    outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[((raw[inp] & 0x03) << 4) | ((raw[inp+1] & 0xF0) >> 4)];
    if ( left == 2 ) outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable[((raw[inp+1] & 0x0F) << 2) | ((raw[inp+2] & 0xC0) >> 6)];
}

NSString *ret = [[[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:outbuf length:outp encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding] autorelease];
free(outbuf);

return ret;
}

我省略了行切割，因为我不需要它，但添加它是微不足道的。

对于那些对优化感兴趣的人来说:目标是最小化主循环中发生的事情。因此，处理最后3个字节的所有逻辑都在循环之外处理。

此外，尝试就地处理数据，而不需要额外地从缓冲区复制数据。把所有算术运算都简化到最小。

观察那些放在一起查找表中的条目的位，当它们被放在一起而不移动时，它们不会重叠。因此，一个主要的改进可能是使用4个单独的256字节查找表并消除移位，如下所示:

outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable1[(raw[inp] & 0xFC)];
outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable2[(raw[inp] & 0x03) | (raw[inp+1] & 0xF0)];
outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable3[(raw[inp+1] & 0x0F) | (raw[inp+2] & 0xC0)];
outbuf[outp++] = base64EncodingTable4[raw[inp+2] & 0x3F];

当然，你可以更进一步，但这超出了这里的范围。
