    • encodeObject

      public static String encodeObject(Serializable serializableObject)
      Serializes an object and returns the Base64-encoded version of that serialized object. If the object cannot be serialized or there is another error, the method will return null.
      Parameters:
      serializableObject - The object to encode
      Returns:
      The Base64-encoded object
      Since:
      1.4

    • encodeBytes

      public static String encodeBytes(byte[] source)
      Encodes a byte array into Base64 notation. Equivalen to calling encodeBytes( source, 0, source.length )
      Parameters:
      source - The data to convert
      Since:
      1.4

    • encodeBytes

      public static String encodeBytes(byte[] source, int off, int len)
      Encodes a byte array into Base64 notation.
      Parameters:
      source - The data to convert
      off - Offset in array where conversion should begin
      len - Length of data to convert
      Since:
      1.4

    • encodeString

      public static String encodeString(String s)
      Encodes a string in Base64 notation with line breaks after every 75 Base64 characters.
      Parameters:
      s - the string to encode
      Returns:
      the encoded string
      Since:
      1.3

    • decode

      public static byte[] decode(String s)
      Decodes data from Base64 notation.
      Parameters:
      s - the string to decode
      Returns:
      the decoded data
      Since:
      1.4

    • decodeToString

      public static String decodeToString(String s)
      Decodes data from Base64 notation and returns it as a string. Equivalent to calling new String( decode( s ) )
      Parameters:
      s - the string to decode
      Returns:
      The data as a string
      Since:
      1.4

    • decodeToObject

      public static Object decodeToObject(String encodedObject)
      Attempts to decode Base64 data and deserialize a Java Object within. Returns null if there was an error.
      Parameters:
      encodedObject - The Base64 data to decode
      Returns:
      The decoded and deserialized object
      Since:
      1.4

    • decode

      public static byte[] decode(byte[] source, int off, int len)

      Parameters:
      source - The Base64 encoded data
      off - The offset of where to begin decoding
      len - The length of characters to decode
      Returns:
