I serialize objects and then encode them using base64, which the

Base64.decodeBase64() it says res is not a byte
array. However the code below says the object is a byte array. How
do you convert res to the
original object (in my case it's a object implementing SecretKey)?
Why are you Base64 encoding this?
If you pass an byte array using XML-RPC the XMP-RPC code will do the
Bas64 encoding and decoding for you. Just send a btre array and
recieve a byte array. Leave the encoding and decoding to the XML-RPC
implementation.
