      • encodeSlashes

        public static String encodeSlashes​(String nodeName)
        Encode strings containing forward slashes so that they can be used as node names with secure preferences. It is the responsibility of the consumer to manually encode such strings before attempting to obtain corresponding nodes from secure preferences.

        Internally, the class uses a subset of JIT encoding. The forward slashes and backward slashes are encoded.

        Parameters:
        nodeName - string to be encoded
        Returns:
        encoded string, null if argument was null
        See Also:
        decodeSlashes(String)

      • decodeSlashes

        public static String decodeSlashes​(String nodeName)
        Decode strings previously encoded with the encodeSlashes(String) method.
        Parameters:
        nodeName - string to be decoded
        Returns:
        decoded string, null if argument was null

      • encodeBase64

        public static String encodeBase64​(byte[] bytes)
        Provides Base64 encoding of the data. This Base64 encoding does not insert end-of-line characters (but can properly decode strings with EOLs inserted).
        Parameters:
        bytes - data to be encoded
        Returns:
        data encoded as Base64 string

      • decodeBase64

        public static byte[] decodeBase64​(String string)
        Provides decoding of Base64-encoded string
        Parameters:
        string - data encoded as Base64
        Returns:
        decoded data
