Re^4: Signed Long Hash

[breezykatt]

Thanks. What I was trying to do was something similar, but this might not yield the same results to what i'm trying to achieve? I thought I had to convert the value to an array of bytes first and then convert that to base64. Something like:

$signed="-281581062704388899";
$bits = unpack("B*", pack("N", $signed));
$base64 = encode_base64(pack("B*", $bits), "");
#or
$base64 = encode_base64($bits);
