Base64 encoding and deprecated stringWithCString: length:

Hi all,
I'm trying to use in a new Cocoa project base64 code sample from here:

http://snipurl.com/sc6wd

Part of the code adopts deprecated + (id)stringWithCString:(const char *)cString length:(NSUInteger)length

so I'm replacing

long base64Length = BIO_get_mem_data(mem, &base64Pointer);
NSString * base64String = [NSString stringWithCString: base64Pointer length: base64Length];


with

NSString * base64String = [NSString stringWithCString: base64Pointer encoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding];

Unfortunately, this modification sometimes works and sometimes adds random garbage characters at the end of the encoded base64 string.

The issue seems related to the C string -> NSString termination and conversion.

Any hints?

Thanks in advance.
