Constructor Detail

InputStream

public InputStream(InputStream in)

Constructs a Base64.InputStream in DECODE mode.

Parameters:

in - the java.io.InputStream from which to read data.

Since:

1.3

InputStream

public InputStream(InputStream in,
                   int options)

Constructs a Base64.InputStream in either ENCODE or DECODE mode.

Valid options:

   ENCODE or DECODE: Encode or Decode as data is read.
   DONT_BREAK_LINES: don't break lines at 76 characters
     (only meaningful when encoding)
     Note: Technically, this makes your encoding non-compliant.
 

Example: new Base64.InputStream( in, Base64.DECODE )

Parameters:

in - the java.io.InputStream from which to read data.

options - Specified options

Since:

2.0

Method Detail

read

public int read()
         throws IOException

Reads enough of the input stream to convert to/from Base64 and returns the next byte.

Overrides:

read in class FilterInputStream

Returns:

next byte

Throws:

IOException

Since:

1.3

read

public int read(byte[] dest,
                int off,
                int len)
         throws IOException

Calls read() repeatedly until the end of stream is reached or len bytes are read. Returns number of bytes read into array or -1 if end of stream is encountered.

Overrides:

read in class FilterInputStream

Parameters:

dest - array to hold values

off - offset for array

len - max number of bytes to read into array

Returns:

bytes read into array or -1 if end of stream is encountered.

Throws:

IOException

Since:

1.3
