[#BloombergLP-bdlde-QuotedPrintableEncoder-endConvert] = xref:BloombergLP.adoc[BloombergLP]::xref:BloombergLP/bdlde.adoc[bdlde]::xref:BloombergLP/bdlde/QuotedPrintableEncoder.adoc[QuotedPrintableEncoder]::endConvert :relfileprefix: ../../../ :mrdocs: Terminate encoding for this encoder; write any retained output (e.g., from a previous call to `convert` with a non‐zero `maxNumOut` argument) to the specified `out` buffer. Optionally specify the `maxNumOut` limit on the number of bytes to output; if `maxNumOut` is negative, no limit is imposed. Load into the specified `numOut` the number of output bytes produced. Return a non‐negative value on success and a negative value otherwise. A successful return status indicates the number of characters that would be output if `endConvert` were called subsequently with no output limit. Any retained bytes are available on a subsequent call to `endConvert`. Once this method is called, no additional input may be supplied without an intervening call to `reset`; once this method returns a zero status, a subsequent call will place this encoder in the error state, and return an error status. == Synopsis Declared in `<bdlde_quotedprintableencoder.h>` [source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"] ---- int endConvert( char* out, int* numOut, int maxNumOut = ‐1); ---- [.small]#Created with https://www.mrdocs.com[MrDocs]#
