public class Base64 extends java.lang.Object
This code is a stripped down version of Robert Harder's Public Domain Base64 implementation. GZIP support, InputStream and OutputStream stuff and some unneeded encode/decode methods have been removed.
-- Original comments follow --
Encodes and decodes to and from Base64 notation.
Change Log:
- v2.1 - Cleaned up javadoc comments and unused variables and methods. Added some convenience methods for reading and writing to and from files.
- v2.0.2 - Now specifies UTF-8 encoding in places where the code fails on systems with other encodings (like EBCDIC).
- v2.0.1 - Fixed an error when decoding a single byte, that is, when the encoded data was a single byte.
- v2.0 - I got rid of methods that used booleans to set options. Now everything is more
consolidated and cleaner. The code now detects when data that's being decoded is gzip-compressed
and will decompress it automatically. Generally things are cleaner. You'll probably have to
change some method calls that you were making to support the new options format (
int
s that you "OR" together). - v1.5.1 - Fixed bug when decompressing and decoding to a byte[] using
decode( String s, boolean gzipCompressed )
. Added the ability to "suspend" encoding in the Output Stream so you can turn on and off the encoding if you need to embed base64 data in an otherwise "normal" stream (like an XML file). - v1.5 - Output stream pases on flush() command but doesn't do anything itself. This helps when using GZIP streams. Added the ability to GZip-compress objects before encoding them.
- v1.4 - Added helper methods to read/write files.
- v1.3.6 - Fixed OutputStream.flush() so that 'position' is reset.
- v1.3.5 - Added flag to turn on and off line breaks. Fixed bug in input stream where last buffer being read, if not completely full, was not returned.
- v1.3.4 - Fixed when "improperly padded stream" error was thrown at the wrong time.
- v1.3.3 - Fixed I/O streams which were totally messed up.
I am placing this code in the Public Domain. Do with it as you will. This software comes with no guarantees or warranties but with plenty of well-wishing instead! Please visit http://iharder.net/base64 periodically to check for updates or to contribute improvements.

Method Detail

encode3to4
private static byte[] encode3to4(byte[] source, int srcOffset, int numSigBytes, byte[] destination, int destOffset)
Encodes up to three bytes of the array source and writes the resulting four Base64 bytes to destination. The source and destination arrays can be manipulated anywhere along their length by specifying srcOffset and destOffset. This method does not check to make sure your arrays are large enough to accommodate srcOffset + 3 for the source array or destOffset + 4 for the destination array. The actual number of significant bytes in your array is given by numSigBytes.- Parameters:
source
- the array to convertsrcOffset
- the index where conversion beginsnumSigBytes
- the number of significant bytes in your arraydestination
- the array to hold the conversiondestOffset
- the index where output will be put- Returns:
- the destination array
- Since:
- 1.3
-
encodeBytes
public static java.lang.String encodeBytes(byte[] source)
Encodes a byte array into Base64 notation. Does not GZip-compress data.- Parameters:
source
- The data to convert- Returns:
- Base64 notation of input data
- Since:
- 1.4
-
encodeBytes
