# class HexBinaryEncoder

Library: Foundation
Package: Streams
Header: Poco/HexBinaryEncoder.h

## Description

This ostream encodes all data written to it in BinHex encoding and forwards it to a connected ostream. Always call close() when done writing data, to ensure proper completion of the encoding operation. In hexBinary encoding, each binary octet is encoded as a character tuple, consisting of two hexadecimal digits ([0-9a-fA-F]) representing the octet code. See also: XML Schema Part 2: Datatypes (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/), section 3.2.15.

Note: The characters are directly written to the ostream's streambuf, thus bypassing the ostream. The ostream's state is therefore not updated to match the buffer's state.
