Class Base64Encoder

java.lang.Object
  org.yajul.io.Base64Encoder

public class Base64Encoder
extends java.lang.Object

BASE64 encoder implementation. This object takes as parameter an input stream and an output stream. It encodes the input stream, using the BASE64 encoding rules, as defined in MIME specification and emit the resulting data to the output stream.

Constructor Detail

Base64Encoder

public Base64Encoder(java.lang.String input)

Create a new Base64 encoder, to encode the given string.

Parameters:

input - The String to be encoded.

Base64Encoder

public Base64Encoder(byte[] bytes)

Create a new Base64 encoder, to encode the given array of bytes.

Parameters:

bytes - The String to be encoded.

Base64Encoder

public Base64Encoder(java.io.InputStream in,
                     java.io.OutputStream out)

Create a new Base64 encoder, encoding input to output.

Parameters:

in - The input stream to be encoded.

out - The output stream, to write encoded data to.

Method Detail

process

public void process()
             throws java.io.IOException

Process the data: encode the input stream to the output stream. This method runs through the input stream, encoding it to the output stream.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - If we weren't able to access the input stream or the output stream.

processString

public java.lang.String processString()

Encode the content of this encoder, as a string. This methods encode the String content, that was provided at creation time, following the BASE64 rules, as specified in the rfc1521.

Returns:

A String, reprenting the encoded content of the input String.

encode

public static java.lang.String encode(java.lang.String string)

A static utility method that encodes a string.

Parameters:

string - The input to be encoded.

Returns:

the encoded string

encode

public static java.lang.String encode(byte[] bytes)

A static utility method that encodes an array of bytes.

Parameters:

bytes - The input to be encoded.

Returns:

the decoded string
