> ---------------------------------------------------------

> Project: Commons Codec
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: Adam Rabung
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.6

> Currently, Codec skips base64 characters that are outside of the encode
> table. I realize this is perfectly to spec, but I wonder if other users
> might appreciate a "strict" mode that throws an exception when one of these
> illegal characters are encountered. For example, I would love an exception
> to be thrown here:
> new Base64().decode("!@#$ iHaveIllegalCharsAtBeginningAndEnd %^&"));
