[jira] [Commented] (DIRAPI-369) DSML needsBase64Encoding
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-369?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17571717#comment-17571717 ]
Emmanuel Lécharny commented on DIRAPI-369:
------------------------------------------
Hi Florian,
coming back to your last comment, indeed, we could do better if we are dealing with Strings. Currently, we simply switch to Base64 if the String is noot containing ASCII characters only. We could escape those instead.

> Key: DIRAPI-369
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRAPI-369
> Project: Directory Client API
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Florian Kimmann
> Priority: Major

> Why does the method needsBase64Encoding in the dsml ParserUtils check for LDIF safety?
> DSML doesnt have to be LDIF safe? We get Base64 encoded strings in our application all the time, because of common german characters like äöüß etc.
> XML can handle those characters. Or am I overlooking something?
