public final class Base64

extends java.lang.Object

This class is intended to replace the original one (version 1.3) to make use of the ByteCream Base64 Encoder. To use it, add the jar to your classpath before xerces2.jar. All the comments and the decoding code are from the original class written by the ASF.

Provides Base64 encoding and decoding as defined by RFC 2045. Use ByteCream methods when possible.

This class provides encode/decode for RFC 2045 Base64 as defined by RFC 2045, N. Freed and N. Borenstein. RFC 2045: Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part One: Format of Internet Message Bodies. Reference 1996 Available at: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2045.txt This class is used by XML Schema binary format validation This implementation does not encode/decode streaming data. You need the data that you will encode/decode already on a byte arrray.
