Field Detail

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.

RFC 2045 section 6.8, Constant Field Values

PEM_CHUNK_SIZE

public static final int PEM_CHUNK_SIZE

PEM chunk size per RFC 1421 section 4.3.2.4.

The 64 character limit does not count the trailing CRLF, but counts all other characters, including any equal signs.

RFC 1421 section 4.3.2.4, Constant Field Values

MASK_8BITS

protected static final int MASK_8BITS

Mask used to extract 8 bits, used in decoding bytes

See Also:

Constant Field Values

PAD_DEFAULT

protected static final byte PAD_DEFAULT

Byte used to pad output.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

pad

protected final byte pad

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 nearest multiple of encodedBlockSize.

Constructor Detail

BaseNCodec

protected BaseNCodec(int unencodedBlockSize,
          int encodedBlockSize,
          int lineLength,
          int chunkSeparatorLength)

Note lineLength is rounded down to the nearest multiple of encodedBlockSize 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 encodedBlockSize 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.
