Julius Davies commented on CODEC-59:
------------------------------------
Attached patch introduces following "String" methods to Base64.java:
Non-Static methods:
-------------------------------
1. public byte[] decode(String pArray)
2. public String encodeToString(byte[] pArray) {
Static methods:
-------------------------------
3. public static byte[] decodeBase64(String base64String)
4. public static String encodeBase64String(byte[] binaryData)
5. public static String encodeBase64URLSafeString(byte[] binaryData)
The patch can only be applied after both of the CODEC-81 patches have been
applied.

> It would be great if the Base64 class had String encode(byte[]) and byte[]
> decode(String) methods. The RFC is stated in terms of "characters" for the
> encoding, so there should be no problem with unwarranted assumptions with
> this. Currently everyone is having to convert to and from Strings themselves.
