- Enclosing class:
- Base64
public static class Base64.Encoder extends Object
This class implements an encoder for encoding byte data using the Base64 encoding scheme as specified in RFC 4648 and RFC 2045.Instances of
Base64.Encoder
class are safe for use by multiple concurrent threads.Unless otherwise noted, passing a
null
argument to a method of this class will cause aNullPointerException
to be thrown.- Since:

Encodes all bytes from the specified byte array into a newly-allocated byte array using theBase64
encoding scheme.int
encode(byte[] src, byte[] dst)
Encodes all bytes from the specified byte array using theBase64

encode(ByteBuffer buffer)
Encodes all remaining bytes from the specified byte buffer into a newly-allocated ByteBuffer using theBase64
encoding scheme.String
encodeToString(byte[] src)
Encodes the specified byte array into a String using theBase64
encoding scheme.Base64.Encoder
withoutPadding()

Method Detail
encode
public byte[] encode(byte[] src)
Encodes all bytes from the specified byte array into a newly-allocated byte array using theBase64
encoding scheme. The returned byte array is of the length of the resulting bytes.- Parameters:
-
src
- the byte array to encode - Returns:
- A newly-allocated byte array containing the resulting encoded bytes.
encode
public int encode(byte[] src, byte[] dst)
Encodes all bytes from the specified byte array using theBase64
encoding scheme, writing the resulting bytes to the given output byte array, starting at offset 0.It is the responsibility of the invoker of this method to make sure the output byte array
dst
has enough space for encoding all bytes from the input byte array. No bytes will be written to the output byte array if the output byte array is not big enough.- Parameters:
-
src
- the byte array to encode -
dst
- the output byte array - Returns:
- The number of bytes written to the output byte array
- Throws:
-
IllegalArgumentException
- ifdst
does not have enough space for encoding all input bytes.
encodeToString
public String encodeToString(byte[] src)
Encodes the specified byte array into a String using theBase64
encoding scheme.This method first encodes all input bytes into a base64 encoded byte array and then constructs a new String by using the encoded byte array and the
ISO-8859-1
charset.In other words, an invocation of this method has exactly the same effect as invoking
new String(encode(src), StandardCharsets.ISO_8859_1)
.- Parameters:
-
src
- the byte array to encode - Returns:
- A String containing the resulting Base64 encoded characters
encode
public ByteBuffer encode(ByteBuffer buffer)
Encodes all remaining bytes from the specified byte buffer into a newly-allocated ByteBuffer using theBase64
encoding scheme. Upon return, the source buffer's position will be updated to its limit; its limit will not have been changed. The returned output buffer's position will be zero and its limit will be the number of resulting encoded bytes.- Parameters:
-
buffer
- the source ByteBuffer to encode - Returns:
- A newly-allocated byte buffer containing the encoded bytes.
wrap
public OutputStream wrap(OutputStream os)
Wraps an output stream for encoding byte data using theBase64
encoding scheme.It is recommended to promptly close the returned output stream after use, during which it will flush all possible leftover bytes to the underlying output stream. Closing the returned output stream will close the underlying output stream.
- Parameters:
-
os
- the output stream. - Returns:
- the output stream for encoding the byte data into the specified Base64 encoded format
withoutPadding
public Base64.Encoder withoutPadding()
Returns an encoder instance that encodes equivalently to this one, but without adding any padding character at the end of the encoded byte data.The encoding scheme of this encoder instance is unaffected by this invocation. The returned encoder instance should be used for non-padding encoding operation.
- Returns:
- an equivalent encoder that encodes without adding any padding character at the end
