Class Base64

java.lang.Object

oak.util.Base64

public class Base64
extends Object

Utilities for encoding and decoding the Base64 representation of binary data. See RFCs 2045 and 3548.

Field Summary

Fields

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
static int	CRLF Encoder flag bit to indicate lines should be terminated with a CRLF pair instead of just an LF.
static int	DEFAULT Default values for encoder/decoder flags.
static int	NO_CLOSE Flag to pass to Base64OutputStream to indicate that it should not close the output stream it is wrapping when it itself is closed.
static int	NO_PADDING Encoder flag bit to omit the padding '=' characters at the end of the output (if any).
static int	NO_WRAP Encoder flag bit to omit all line terminators (i.e., the output will be on one long line).
static int	URL_SAFE Encoder/decoder flag bit to indicate using the "URL and filename safe" variant of Base64 (see RFC 3548 section 4) where - and _ are used in place of + and /.

Method Detail

decode

public static byte[] decode(String str,
                            int flags)

Decode the Base64-encoded data in input and return the data in a new byte array.

The padding '=' characters at the end are considered optional, but if any are present, there must be the correct number of them.

Parameters:

str - the input String to decode, which is converted to bytes using the default charset

flags - controls certain features of the decoded output. Pass DEFAULT to decode standard Base64.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the input contains incorrect padding

decode

public static byte[] decode(byte[] input,
                            int flags)

Decode the Base64-encoded data in input and return the data in a new byte array.

The padding '=' characters at the end are considered optional, but if any are present, there must be the correct number of them.

Parameters:

input - the input array to decode

flags - controls certain features of the decoded output. Pass DEFAULT to decode standard Base64.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the input contains incorrect padding

decode

public static byte[] decode(byte[] input,
                            int offset,
                            int len,
                            int flags)

Decode the Base64-encoded data in input and return the data in a new byte array.

The padding '=' characters at the end are considered optional, but if any are present, there must be the correct number of them.

Parameters:

input - the data to decode

offset - the position within the input array at which to start

len - the number of bytes of input to decode

flags - controls certain features of the decoded output. Pass DEFAULT to decode standard Base64.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the input contains incorrect padding

encodeToString

public static String encodeToString(byte[] input,
                                    int flags)

Base64-encode the given data and return a newly allocated String with the result.

Parameters:

input - the data to encode

flags - controls certain features of the encoded output. Passing DEFAULT results in output that adheres to RFC 2045.

encodeToString

public static String encodeToString(byte[] input,
                                    int offset,
                                    int len,
                                    int flags)

Base64-encode the given data and return a newly allocated String with the result.

Parameters:

input - the data to encode

offset - the position within the input array at which to start

len - the number of bytes of input to encode

flags - controls certain features of the encoded output. Passing DEFAULT results in output that adheres to RFC 2045.

encode

public static byte[] encode(byte[] input,
                            int flags)

Base64-encode the given data and return a newly allocated byte[] with the result.

Parameters:

input - the data to encode

flags - controls certain features of the encoded output. Passing DEFAULT results in output that adheres to RFC 2045.

encode

public static byte[] encode(byte[] input,
                            int offset,
                            int len,
                            int flags)

Base64-encode the given data and return a newly allocated byte[] with the result.

Parameters:

input - the data to encode

offset - the position within the input array at which to start

len - the number of bytes of input to encode

flags - controls certain features of the encoded output. Passing DEFAULT results in output that adheres to RFC 2045.
