Method Details

encode

public static String encode(Blob blob)
                     throws IOException

Get a base64 representation of the content of a given Blob as a string. This method will try to carry out the encoding operation in the most efficient way.

Parameters:

blob - the blob with the content to encode

Returns:

the base64 encoded content

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs when reading the content of the blob

encodeToCharArray

public static char[] encodeToCharArray(Blob blob)
                                throws IOException

Get a base64 representation of the content of a given Blob as a char array. This method will try to carry out the encoding operation in the most efficient way.

Parameters:

blob - the blob with the content to encode

Returns:

the base64 encoded content

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs when reading the content of the blob

decode

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

Deprecated.

decode

public static byte[] decode(String data)

Decodes a base64 encoded string into a byte array. This method is designed to conform to the XML Schema specification. It can be used to decode the text content of an element (or the value of an attribute) of type base64Binary.

Parameters:

data - the base64 encoded data

Returns:

the decoded data

isValidBase64Encoding

public static boolean isValidBase64Encoding(String data)

Deprecated.
