[jira] Commented: (ABDERA-159) Entry content is encoded as base64 even if mime type of text/* is provided

["James M Snell (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ABDERA-159?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12597356#action_12597356 ] 

James M Snell commented on ABDERA-159:
--------------------------------------

the atom spec states that content using any text/* media type should not be base64 encoded, so this is definitely a bug.  I'm working on a fix

> Calling the following:
> entry.setContent(inputStream, "text/plain");
> This results in the binary content being base64 encoded even though content of type 'text/*' does not need to be encoded.  Expectation is that content should not be encoded when it is a well-known content type (text, html, etc.)
