Package com.partnersoft.formats.base64 Description

The Base64 encoding format.

Base64 is an encoding format used to represent binary data in a reasonably safe text format. It is used commonly in email for MIME encoding, and sometimes in other formats such as XML to represent binary data.

Base64Lib should solve most of your needs; the streaming implementations Base64InputStream and Base64OutputStream can also be used independently if you have need.

Much of the logic was derived from v2.0.1 source published by Robert Harder at http://iharder.net/base64 and placed in the public domain. He has our thanks, and source for this package is available on request from Partner as a gift in kind.
