The Jakarta Commons Codec project has a Base64 implementation that is being used in Apache XML-RPC and the Jakarta Commons HttpClient.

Do you have a patch/suggested class to use? It seems like here: String encoding = null; // check to see if sun's Base64 encoder is available. try { sun.misc.BASE64Encoder encoder = (sun.misc.BASE64Encoder) Class.forName( "sun.misc.BASE64Encoder" ).newInstance();
encoding = encoder.encode( up.getBytes() ); } catch ( Exception ex ) { // Do nothing, as for MavenSession we will never use // auth and we will eventually move over httpclient // in the commons. } connection.setRequestProperty( "Authorization", "Basic " + encoding ); }
We could use this: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/codec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/codec/bin ary/Base64.html
Do you want to try it out and submit a patch to use this?

Hi all,
I'm a kaffe developer currently discovering the wonderful world of maven ;) It seems like a very nice tool to me, and the kaffe project uses it for managing the docbook documentation. Maven 1.0 rc1 doesn't run out of the box with kaffe (yet), but with a small patch to maven [1], and a few patches to kaffe's latest CVS it's possible to get quite far [2].
Encouraged by this, I tried to build maven's latest CVS with kaffe, and again, I got quite far with maven jar. Unfortunately, the compilation doesn't succeed:
bash-2.05a$ MAVEN_OPTS=-Dbuild.compiler=kjc maven jar __ __ | \/ |__ _Apache__ ___ | |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \ ~ intelligent projects ~ |_| |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_| v. 1.0-rc1-SNAPSHOT
java:prepare-filesystem:
java:compile: [echo] Compiling to /tmp/topic/maven/target/classes [javac] Compiling 93 source files to /tmp/topic/maven/target/classes /tmp/topic/maven/src/java/org/apache/maven/util/HttpUtils.java:244: error:Cannot find type "sun/misc/BASE64Encoder"
BUILD FAILED
Since no good code uses sun internal classes, I'm sure it would be possible to remove the reference to "sun/misc/BASE64Encoder", in order to make it compile on free runtimes, as well.
I believe ant had a similar problem, and it was fixed by using reflection. Of course, putting
sun.misc.BASE64Encoder encoder = (sun.misc.BASE64Encoder) Class.forName( "sun.misc.BASE64Encoder" ).newInstance();
straight in the code, makes the point of using reflection quite moot ;)
cheers, dalibor topic
[1] Remove the unmecessary tools.jar entry in forehead.conf [2] http://www.kaffe.org/~robilad/mavenized-kaffe-website.png maven jar works fine. maven site:generate breaks due to some code using some unportable (i.e. sun internal) classes.
