OK, now I understand the concern about it: * http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/faq/faq-sun-packages.html
Whatever the case, I will remove this dependency from my code. Thank you all for the quick feedback. Regards, Martin On 8/9/06, Martin Cordova <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Just to set the record straight, Winstone servlet engine does not have a dependency on this code - as far as I know, it's just some reusable code of mine that makes use of this Base64 API, not related to Winstone. My primary concern was getting all my code running on Harmony without significant changes, especially code that invokes JDK libraries. Since I saw it implemented on IBM's JVM (despite the sun.* namespace) I thought it would be present in Harmony. I have no problem calling another Base64 class, it is just that I did not expect this class to be missing in Harmony.
