Android - decodeBase64 crashes App

Question

I have to encrypt a String but the app doesn\'t reach the encrypt method, it crashes on load.
I\'m using Apache Commons Codec library.

private EditText txt         


        

Answer 1

Simply create an object of Base64 and use it to encode or decode in Android, when using org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 library

To Encode

Base64 ed=new Base64();

String encoded=new String(ed.encode("Hello".getBytes()));

Replace "Hello" with the text to be encoded in String Format.

To Decode

Base64 ed=new Base64();

String decoded=new String(ed.decode(encoded.getBytes()));

Here encoded is the String variable to be decoded
