Class BASE64EncoderStream

java.lang.Object

java.io.OutputStream

java.io.FilterOutputStream

com.sun.mail.util.BASE64EncoderStream

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, Flushable, AutoCloseable

Direct Known Subclasses:

BEncoderStream

public class BASE64EncoderStream
extends FilterOutputStream

This class implements a BASE64 encoder. It is implemented as a FilterOutputStream, so one can just wrap this class around any output stream and write bytes into this filter. The encoding is done as the bytes are written out.

Constructor Detail

BASE64EncoderStream

public BASE64EncoderStream(OutputStream out,
                   int bytesPerLine)

Create a BASE64 encoder that encodes the specified output stream.

Parameters:

out - the output stream

bytesPerLine - number of bytes per line. The encoder inserts a CRLF sequence after the specified number of bytes, unless bytesPerLine is Integer.MAX_VALUE, in which case no CRLF is inserted. bytesPerLine is rounded down to a multiple of 4.

BASE64EncoderStream

public BASE64EncoderStream(OutputStream out)

Create a BASE64 encoder that encodes the specified input stream. Inserts the CRLF sequence after outputting 76 bytes.

Parameters:

out - the output stream

Method Detail

write

public void write(byte[] b,
         int off,
         int len)
           throws IOException

Encodes len bytes from the specified byte array starting at offset off to this output stream.

Overrides:

write in class FilterOutputStream

Parameters:

b - the data.

off - the start offset in the data.

len - the number of bytes to write.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

write

public void write(byte[] b)
           throws IOException

Encodes b.length bytes to this output stream.

Overrides:

write in class FilterOutputStream

Parameters:

b - the data to be written.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

write

public void write(int c)
           throws IOException

Encodes the specified byte to this output stream.

Overrides:

write in class FilterOutputStream

Parameters:

c - the byte.

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

flush

public void flush()
           throws IOException

Flushes this output stream and forces any buffered output bytes to be encoded out to the stream.

Specified by:

flush in interface Flushable

Overrides:

flush in class FilterOutputStream

Throws:

IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Forces any buffered output bytes to be encoded out to the stream and closes this output stream

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Overrides:

close in class FilterOutputStream

Throws:

IOException

encode

public static byte[] encode(byte[] inbuf)

Base64 encode a byte array. No line breaks are inserted. This method is suitable for short strings, such as those in the IMAP AUTHENTICATE protocol, but not to encode the entire content of a MIME part.
