    • sm

      protected static final StringManager sm

    • MIME_CHUNK_SIZE

      public static final int MIME_CHUNK_SIZE
      MIME chunk size per RFC 2045 section 6.8.

      The 76 character limit does not count the trailing CRLF, but counts all other characters, including any equal signs.

    • MASK_8BITS

      protected static final int MASK_8BITS
      Mask used to extract 8 bits, used in decoding bytes

    • PAD_DEFAULT

      protected static final byte PAD_DEFAULT
      Byte used to pad output.
      See Also:

    • pad

      protected final byte pad
      Pad byte. Instance variable just in case it needs to vary later.

    • lineLength

      protected final int lineLength
      Chunksize for encoding. Not used when decoding. A value of zero or less implies no chunking of the encoded data. Rounded down to the nearest multiple of encodedBlockSize.

  • Constructor Details

    • BaseNCodec

      protected BaseNCodec(int unencodedBlockSize, int encodedBlockSize, int lineLength, int chunkSeparatorLength)
      Note lineLength is rounded down to the nearest multiple of the encoded block size. If chunkSeparatorLength is zero, then chunking is disabled.
      Parameters:
      unencodedBlockSize - the size of an unencoded block (e.g. Base64 = 3)
      encodedBlockSize - the size of an encoded block (e.g. Base64 = 4)
      lineLength - if > 0, use chunking with a length lineLength
      chunkSeparatorLength - the chunk separator length, if relevant

    • BaseNCodec

      protected BaseNCodec(int unencodedBlockSize, int encodedBlockSize, int lineLength, int chunkSeparatorLength, byte pad)
      Note lineLength is rounded down to the nearest multiple of the encoded block size. If chunkSeparatorLength is zero, then chunking is disabled.
      Parameters:
      unencodedBlockSize - the size of an unencoded block (e.g. Base64 = 3)
      encodedBlockSize - the size of an encoded block (e.g. Base64 = 4)
      lineLength - if > 0, use chunking with a length lineLength
      chunkSeparatorLength - the chunk separator length, if relevant
      pad - byte used as padding byte.
