I have a C App which uses openssl for Encoding and decoding which
needs to be ported to java.

The decoded text does not match between the C App and the java App.
The size of the output itself is wrong. I think i am doing something
basically wrong. pls help.

Output is not the same as seen here because of special characters
Output from C: is only 12 bytes long

ýmýýýýýý.ýýý~ý.ý.ýýýýuýýýý_ý.ýý7ýuý...`.K.|dR..ýH?ý.ý.}ý..oý

Output from Java: 128 bytes including a new line char.

+mýtýný+ýýOý~+?ý
fýý8uýý-ý_ý?f-7ýuý???`?K?|dR?ýýH?+?v?}d?ýo-ýQýxDSG-?'ýýuý?H1Fzý8|ýý}1ý~-ýHw-fý?}ýý~-_ýý_i
+HAGaBý?ý_~ý?uv?ýý?|D

Following is the code in both C and Java
C Code:

char* my = new char(172);
char  base64[78];
int                x;
int                keyLength;
EVP_ENCODE_CTX    ctx;

getbaseData()
{
    memset(my,0,172);
    strcpy(my,"1234567899adserffsgbhgrthfbsdferwsdfghjtyjf+dfgDGRdgHEsdfGRSGH+ASD/FG/sdfesfgW/SFVGHeERT4sEYJ5+sdfERSDFGesfsfJTdfTGJfsSfSHfEZpsdfa36fsJf3sdfaSDFSEFHYUKMF5dfftsadfsd+asffES=");
    EVP_DecodeInit(&ctx);
    EVP_DecodeUpdate(&ctx, (unsigned char *)base64, &x, (unsigned char *)
my, 172);
    keyLength = x;    //getting 48
    EVP_DecodeFinal(&ctx, (unsigned char *)&base64[x], &x);
    keyLength += x;    //getting 12
}

Java Code used the Base64 code from
http://ostermiller.org/utils/Base64.html i also tried the B64 class
from http://sourceforge.net/snippet/detail.php?type=snippet&id=100549
- both the results are the same.
