Re: [jug-discussion] Help with uuencode

[Andrew Huntwork]

It appears that UUEncoder is a subclass of
http://java.sun.com/products/commerce/docs/api/javax.commerce.util.CharacterEncoder.html
This program seems to do something interesting...
public class UUEncodeTest {
  public static void main(String argv[]) throws IOException {
    UUEncoder encoder = new UUEncoder("foo",777); // ?
    UUDecoder decoder = new UUDecoder();
    byte bytes[] = new byte[] { 0x00,0x01,0x02,0x03,0x04,0x05,0x06,0x07 };
    String encoded = encoder.encodeBuffer(bytes);
    byte decoded[] = decoder.decodeBuffer(encoded);
    if(!Arrays.equals(bytes,decoded))
      throw new RuntimeException(Arrays.toString(bytes) + " != " + 
Arrays.toString(decoded));
    System.out.println(encoded);
  }
}

Here's the output:
begin 777 foo
(  $" P0%!@<!
end
The effect of the constructor arguments is obvious (and they're 
unnecessary), but their meaning is totally unclear to me.

Thanks Eric. I saw this but couldn't find any docs on how to use it.
