I tried the following code using both "base64" and "utf-8" encoding with phone simulator and playbook simulator.

var strBlob = blackberry.utils.blobToString(blob, "utf-8");

Its working perfectly with phone simulator. But not working with playbook simulator.

Thanks.

Hi kalan,

Currently blobToString() is not supported on PlayBook in the WebWorks Beta.  The list of currently supported Beta APIs are here:

Can you suggest me a method to convert a string to "base64" encoded string.

var blob = blackberry.utils.stringToBlob(authToken, "utf-8");
var strBlob = blackberry.utils.blobToString(blob,"base64");

I use this code with the phone app. Can you suggest me if there any alternative method available which can be used with playbook?

Thanks.

This code of converting binary data to base64 and vise versa works perfectly with phone API. But not works in playbook.

I can't understand why is that? Can someone explain me?

Thanks.
