Class QuotedPrintableCodec

java.lang.Object
edu.internet2.middleware.grouperClientExt.org.apache.commons.codec.net.QuotedPrintableCodec
All Implemented Interfaces:
BinaryDecoder, BinaryEncoder, Decoder, Encoder, StringDecoder, StringEncoder
public class QuotedPrintableCodec extends Object implements BinaryEncoder, BinaryDecoder, StringEncoder, StringDecoder
Codec for the Quoted-Printable section of RFC 1521.

The Quoted-Printable encoding is intended to represent data that largely consists of octets that correspond to printable characters in the ASCII character set. It encodes the data in such a way that the resulting octets are unlikely to be modified by mail transport. If the data being encoded are mostly ASCII text, the encoded form of the data remains largely recognizable by humans. A body which is entirely ASCII may also be encoded in Quoted-Printable to ensure the integrity of the data should the message pass through a character- translating, and/or line-wrapping gateway.

Note:

Depending on the selected strict parameter, this class will implement a different set of rules of the quoted-printable spec:

  • strict=false: only rules #1 and #2 are implemented
  • strict=true: all rules #1 through #5 are implemented

Originally, this class only supported the non-strict mode, but the codec in this partial form could already be used for certain applications that do not require quoted-printable line formatting (rules #3, #4, #5), for instance Q codec. The strict mode has been added in 1.10.

This class is immutable and thread-safe.

Since:
1.3
