-----------------------------------------
Summary: Make possible to provide padding byte to BaseNCodec in
constructor
Key: CODEC-181
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-181
Project: Commons Codec
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.9, 1.10
Reporter: Ivan Martinez-Ortiz
Priority: Minor
Hi,
I'm developing an application that generates QRCodes, so the user does not need
to type a HMAC value. QRCodes [1] supports different encoding formats, in
particular the alpha numeric format is almost compatible with the Base32 (the
only problematic character is the '=' character).
I created an almost exact copy of Base32 class in order to change the padding
byte, however the BaseNCodec#PAD byte is final and not settable in the class
constructor.
I already tested this approach and I can provide a patch to support this new
feature.
