Julius Davies updated CODEC-59:
-------------------------------
Attachment: codec59-2009-07-28.patch
Attached codec59-2009-07-28.patch.
Introduces the String oriented methods previously mentioned in comments here.
Also improves StringUtils handling of null input, as well as Base64.decode() of
null. The reset() calls added to Base64 are pretty important I think in case
people try to re-use Base64 objects, e.g.:
{code}
Base64 b64 = new Base64();
b64.encode( someThing );
b64.encode( someOtherThing );
{code}
This will only work with the reset() calls I've added as part of this patch.
> Add methods to Base64 which work with String instead of byte[]

> 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.
