base64

If I want to produce a Base64-encoded output, how would I do that in .NET?

I know that since .NET 2.0, there is the ICryptoTransform interface, and the ToBase64Transform() and FromBase64Transform() implementations of that interface.

But those classes are embedded into the System.Security namespace, and require the use of a TransformBlock, TransformFinalBlock, and so on.

Is there an easier way to base64 encode a stream of data in .NET?
