public abstract class BaseNCodec extends Object implements org.apache.commons.codec.BinaryEncoder, org.apache.commons.codec.BinaryDecoder
Abstract superclass for Base-N encoders and decoders.

This class is thread-safe.

You can set the decoding behavior when the input bytes contain leftover trailing bits that cannot be created by a valid encoding. These can be bits that are unused from the final character or entire characters. The default mode is lenient decoding.
  • Lenient: Any trailing bits are composed into 8-bit bytes where possible. The remainder are discarded.
  • Strict: The decoding will raise an IllegalArgumentException if trailing bits are not part of a valid encoding. Any unused bits from the final character must be zero. Impossible counts of entire final characters are not allowed.

When strict decoding is enabled it is expected that the decoded bytes will be re-encoded to a byte array that matches the original, i.e. no changes occur on the final character. This requires that the input bytes use the same padding and alphabet as the encoder.
