Kapil Arya created MESOS-8569: --------------------------------- Summary: Allow newline characters when decoding base64 strings in stout Key: MESOS-8569 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-8569 Project: Mesos Issue Type: Task Components: stout Reporter: Kapil Arya
Current implementation of `stout::base64::decode` errors out on encountering a newline character ("\n" or "\r\n") which is correct wrt [RFC4668#section-3.3|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-3.3]. However, most implementations insert a newline to delimit encoded string and ignore (instead of erroring out) the newline character while decoding the string. Since stout facilities are used by third-party modules to encode/decode base64 data, it is desirable to allow decoding of newline-delimited data. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
