Just wanted to let the list know I have taken portions of the
utils/base64, cleaned it up, added jUnit tests and submitted it as a
patch to the Apache Jakarta Commons Codec bugzilla. The reason for this
is that other crypto-related software may need this functionality and I
know in some of my stax test code, this was the only functionality from
xml-security I was using and I am already using the apache commons-codec
Base64 encoder for encoding binary CDATA chunks. The integer encoding is
also the only reason that I can see that xml-security has its own base64
encoder implementation, and the commons-codec project focuses on this
sort of thing and has lots of unit tests, etc. The url for the bugzilla
page is:
