22  /**
23   * Provides Base64 encoding and decoding in a streaming fashion (unlimited size). When encoding the default lineLength
24   * is 76 characters and the default lineEnding is CRLF, but these can be overridden by using the appropriate
25   * constructor.
26   * <p>
27   * The default behaviour of the Base64InputStream is to DECODE, whereas the default behaviour of the Base64OutputStream
28   * is to ENCODE, but this behaviour can be overridden by using a different constructor.

33   * </p>
34   * <p>
35   * Since this class operates directly on byte streams, and not character streams, it is hard-coded to only encode/decode
36   * character encodings which are compatible with the lower 127 ASCII chart (ISO-8859-1, Windows-1252, UTF-8, etc).
