Sebb commented on CODEC-8:
--------------------------
Also, the switch statement in decode() does not have any breaks in it - all the
cases drop thru.
If this is intentional - I assume it is - then perhaps this could be commented?
> REQ: Streaming codecs
> ---------------------
>
> Key: CODEC-8
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-8
> Project: Commons Codec
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: All
> Reporter: Sergei S. Ivanov
> Fix For: 1.4
>
> Attachments: Base64.diff
>
>
> I would really appreciate if, for example, Base64 encoder could operate on
> streams. One reason is that it's much easier to attach ByteArrayInputStream to
> an array of bytes that to copy a byte array into a stream. The other reason is
> greater flexibility, given by the streams.
> I'd suggest creating a pair of new interfaces:
> public interface StreamingDecoder implements Decoder {
> public void decode(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws
> DecoderException;
> }
> public interface StreamingEncoder implements Encoder {
> public void encode(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws
> EncoderException;
> }
> Base64 and Hex will then be able to implement these interfaces.
