11.22.4 Binary Objects

This class may initialized from string data (which may include NULs). The primary access to the content of a `Binary` object is provided by an attribute:

`data`
  The binary data encapsulated by the `Binary` instance. The data is provided as an 8-bit string.

`Binary` objects have the following methods, supported mainly for internal use by the marshalling/unmarshalling code:

`decode`( | string)

  Accept a base64 string and decode it as the instance's new data.

`encode`( | out)

  Write the XML-RPC base 64 encoding of this binary item to the out stream object.

It also supports certain of Python's built-in operators through a `_cmp__()` method.
