  public final static String base64Encode(String str)

This method encodes the given string using the base64-encoding specified in RFC-1521. It's used for example in the "basic" authorization scheme.

Parameters:

str - the string

Returns:

the base64-encoded str

  public final static byte[] base64Encode(byte data[])

This method encodes the given byte[] using the base64-encoding specified in RFC-1521.

Parameters:

Returns:

the base64-encoded data

  public final static String base64Decode(String str)

This method decodes the given string using the base64-encoding specified in RFC-1521.

Parameters:

str - the base64-encoded string.

Returns:

the decoded str.

  public final static byte[] base64Decode(byte data[])

This method decodes the given byte[] using the base64-encoding specified in RFC-1521.

Parameters:

data - the base64-encoded data.

Returns:

the decoded data.

  public final static String quotedPrintableEncode(String str)

This method does a quoted-printable encoding of the given string according to RFC-1521. Note: it assumes 8-bit characters.

Parameters:

str - the string

Returns:

the quoted-printable encoded string

  public final static String quotedPrintableDecode(String str) throws ParseException

This method does a quoted-printable decoding of the given string according to RFC-1521.

Parameters:

str - the string

Returns:

the decoded string

Throws: ParseException

If a '=' is not followed by a valid 2-digit hex number or '\r\n'.

  public final static String URLEncode(String str)

This method urlencodes the given string. This method is here for symmetry reasons and just calls URLEncoder.encode().

Parameters:

str - the string

Returns:

the url-encoded string

  public final static String URLDecode(String str) throws ParseException

This method decodes the given urlencoded string.

Parameters:

str - the url-encoded string

Returns:

the decoded string

Throws: ParseException

If a '%' is not followed by a valid 2-digit hex number.

  public final static NVPair[] mpFormDataDecode(byte data[],
                                                String cont_type,
                                                String dir) throws IOException, ParseException

This method decodes a multipart/form-data encoded string. The boundary is parsed from the cont_type variable, which must be of the form 'multipart/form-data; boundary=...'.
Any encoded files are created in the directory specified by dir using the encoded filename.
Note: Does not handle nested encodings (yet).

Parameters:

data - the form-data to decode.

cont_type - the content type header (must contain the boundary string).

dir - the directory to create the files in.

Returns:

an array name/value pairs.

Throws: IOException

If any file operation fails.

Throws: ParseException

If an error during parsing occurs.

  public final static String getParameter(String param,
                                          String hdr)

retrieves the value associated with the parameter param in a given header string. This is used especially in headers like 'Content-type' and 'Content-Disposition'. Here is the syntax it expects:
";" param "=" ( token | quoted-string )

Parameters:

param - the parameter name

hdr - the header value

Returns:

the value for this parameter, or null if not found.

  public final static byte[] mpFormDataEncode(NVPair opts[],
                                              NVPair files[],
                                              NVPair cont_type) throws IOException

This method encodes name/value pairs and files into a byte array using the multipart/form-data encoding. The boundary is returned as part of cont_type.

Parameters:

opts - the simple form-data to encode.

files - the files to encode.

cont_type - an empty NVPair. This is filled with name = "Content-Type", value = "multipart/form-data; boundary=..."

Returns:

an encoded byte array containing all the opts and files.

Throws: IOException

If any file operation fails.

  public final static String nv2query(NVPair pairs[])

Turns an array of name/value pairs into the string "name1=value1&name2=value2&name3=value3". The names and values are first urlencoded. This is the form in which form-data is passed to a cgi script.

Parameters:

pairs - the array of name/value pairs

Returns:

a string containg the encoded name/value pairs

  public final static NVPair[] query2nv(String query) throws ParseException

Turns a string of the form "name1=value1&name2=value2&name3=value3" into an array of name/value pairs. The names and values are urldecoded. The query string is in the form in which form-data is received in a cgi script.

Parameters:

query - the query string containing the encoded name/value pairs

Returns:

an array of NVPairs

Throws: ParseException

If the '=' is missing in any field, or if the urldecoding of the name or value fails

  public final static byte[] chunkedEncode(byte data[],
                                           NVPair ftrs[],
                                           boolean last)

Encodes data used the chunked encoding. last signales if this is the last chunk, in which case the appropriate footer is generated.

Parameters:

data - the data to be encoded; may be null.

ftrs - optional headers to include in the footer (ignored if not last); may be null.

last - whether this is the last chunk.

Returns:

an array of bytes containing the chunk

  public final static Object chunkedDecode(InputStream input) throws ParseException, IOException

Decodes chunked data. The chunks are read from an InputStream, which is assumed to be correctly positioned. Use 'xxx instanceof byte[]' and 'xxx instanceof NVPair[]' to determine if this was data or the last chunk.

Parameters:

input - the stream from which to read the next chunk.

Returns:

If this was a data chunk then it returns a byte[]; else it's the footer and it returns a NVPair[] containing the footers.

Throws: ParseException

If any exception during parsing occured.

Throws: IOException

If any exception during reading occured.
