Sebb resolved CODEC-164.
------------------------

    Resolution: Invalid

The test code uses UTF-8 to convert the input string to bytes:

inputBuffer = input.getBytes("UTF-8");

but then uses the default encoding to convert the bytes back to a string:

value = bos.toString(); // <== default used here
System.out.println("Decompressed String :-"+value);

Changing this to 

value = bos.toString("UTF-8");

fixes the issue.

As the source file is actually in ISO-8859-1 the test should actually be using 
that for the byte<=>String conversions. This also fixes the issue.

> While decompressing the compressed String (which contains special characters 
> like " ç or õ or ã " )with API “org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64” it is 
> showing garbage values.
> While using Base64 API, we have used default encoding type as “UTF-8”.
> I have tried this issue with commons-codec-v1.3.jar and 
> commons-codec-v1.7.jar also.
