    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-288?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17090042#comment-17090042 ] 

Alex Herbert commented on CODEC-288:
------------------------------------

1.5 is an old version of codec. Can you update to a later version?

On 1.15-SNAPSHOT this:
{code:java}
@Test
public void testCodec288() {
    String input = "AQAAAAFxB7VyAgAAAAEPEMdg";
    byte[] output = Base64.decodeBase64(input);
    System.out.printf("%d = %s%n", output.length, Arrays.toString(output));
}
{code}
Outputs this:

{noformat}
18 = [1, 0, 0, 0, 1, 113, 7, -75, 114, 2, 0, 0, 0, 1, 15, 16, -57, 96]
{noformat}

Which appears to be as expected.
