All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, AutoCloseable

public class BASE64DecoderStream extends FilterInputStream
This class implements a BASE64 Decoder. It is implemented as a FilterInputStream, so one can just wrap this class around any input stream and read bytes from this filter. The decoding is done as the bytes are read out.
  • Constructor Details

    • BASE64DecoderStream

      public BASE64DecoderStream(InputStream in)
      Create a BASE64 decoder that decodes the specified input stream
      Parameters:
      in - the input stream
  • Method Details

    • read

      public int read() throws IOException
      Read the next decoded byte from this input stream. The byte is returned as an int in the range 0 to 255. If no byte is available because the end of the stream has been reached, the value -1 is returned. This method blocks until input data is available, the end of the stream is detected, or an exception is thrown.
      Overrides:
      read in class FilterInputStream
      Returns:
      next byte of data, or -1 if the end of the stream is reached.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.

    • read

      public int read(byte[] buf, int off, int len) throws IOException
      Reads up to len decoded bytes of data from this input stream into an array of bytes. This method blocks until some input is available.
      Overrides:
      read in class FilterInputStream
      Parameters:
      buf - the buffer into which the data is read.
      off - the start offset of the data.
      len - the maximum number of bytes read.
      Returns:
      the total number of bytes read into the buffer, or -1 if there is no more data because the end of the stream has been reached.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs.
    • markSupported

      public boolean markSupported()
      Tests if this input stream supports marks. Currently this class does not support marks
      Overrides:
      markSupported in class FilterInputStream
    • available

      public int available() throws IOException
      Returns the number of bytes that can be read from this input stream without blocking. However, this figure is only a close approximation in case the original encoded stream contains embedded CRLFs; since the CRLFs are discarded, not decoded
      Overrides:
      available in class FilterInputStream
      Throws:
      IOException
    • decode

      public static byte[] decode(byte[] inbuf)
      Base64 decode a byte array. No line breaks are allowed. This method is suitable for short strings, such as those in the IMAP AUTHENTICATE protocol, but not to decode the entire content of a MIME part.
      Parameters:
      inbuf - byte array to decode
      Returns:
      decoded byte array NOTE: inbuf may only contain valid base64 characters. Whitespace is not ignored.
