The codec package contains simple encoder and decoders for various formats
10
such as Base64 and Hexadecimal. In addition to these widely used encoders and
11
decoders, the codec package also maintains a collection of phonetic encoding
15
o Codec 1.4 is binary compatible with Codec 1.3
16
o Codec 1.4 has a minimum requirement of JDK 1.4
18
Changes in this version include:
22
o [CODEC-60] Implement Caverphone.
23
o [CODEC-52] Digest on InputStreams.
24
o [CODEC-39] DigestUtils: Add methods for SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512.
25
o [CODEC-69] Streaming Base64 (Base64InputStream and Base64OutputStream added).
26
o [CODEC-59] Add methods to Base64 which work with String instead of byte[]
30
o [CODEC-77] Base64 bug with empty input (new byte[0]).
31
o [CODEC-72] Soundex and RefinedSoundex issues with character arrays.
32
o [CODEC-71] Base64.isArrayByteBase64() method is inefficient for large byte arrays.
33
o [CODEC-70] Thread safety and malicious code safety improvements.
34
o [CODEC-68] isBase64 throws ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException on some non-BASE64 bytes.
35
o [CODEC-65] Fix case-insensitive string handling.
36
o [CODEC-61] Base64.encodeBase64() throws NegativeArraySizeException on large files.
37
o [CODEC-58] Character set used by Base64 not documented.
38
o [CODEC-56] RefinedSoundex creates instance before al fields have been initialized.
39
o [CODEC-51] Test failures in SoundexTest
40
o [CODEC-10] Using US_ENGLISH in Soundex caused an NullPointerException.
41
o [CODEC-6] Source tarball spews files all over the place.
42
o [CODEC-22] Base64.isArrayByteBase64() throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException for negative octets
43
o [CODEC-78] Base64: Improve Code Coverage
44
o [CODEC-81] Base64's new constructor parameters ignored
45
o [CODEC-83] Improve Double Metaphone test coverage
46
o [CODEC-84] Double Metaphone bugs in alternative encoding
47
o [CODEC-73] Make string2byte conversions indepedent of platform default encoding
51
o [CODEC-75] Make Base64 URL-safe
52
o [CODEC-74] Allow for uppercase letters output in Hex.encodeHex().
53
o [CODEC-40] Add crypto-compatible BigInteger encoding support to Base64.
