Gary Gregory commented on CODEC-89:
-----------------------------------
What a pickle. The current behavior is documented in Javadocs but the API
behavior for 1.4 is released and different from 1.3. What should in 1.5? Go
back to 1.3 behavior? That seems like asking call sites a lot, switching twice.
What does the community thinks?
> new Base64().encode() appends a CRLF, and chunks results into 76 character
> lines

> Key: CODEC-89
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-89
> Project: Commons Codec
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: Julius Davies
> Attachments: codec-89.patch

> The instance encode() method (e.g. new Base64().encode()) appends a CRLF.
> Actually it's fully chunking the output into 76 character lines.
> Commons-Codec-1.3 did not do this. The static Base64.encodeBase64() method
> behaves the same in both 1.3 and 1.4, so this problem only affects the
> instance encode() method.
