Remi Arntzen commented on CODEC-8:
----------------------------------

Resolution:	Won't Fix

Why won't this be fixed.  This is a basic feature that demands further consideration.

>             Project: Commons Codec
>          Issue Type: Bug

> I would really appreciate if, for example, Base64 encoder could operate on
> streams. One reason is that it's much easier to attach ByteArrayInputStream to
> an array of bytes that to copy a byte array into a stream. The other reason is
> greater flexibility, given by the streams.
> I'd suggest creating a pair of new interfaces:
> public interface StreamingDecoder implements Decoder {
>   public void decode(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws DecoderException;
> }
> public interface StreamingEncoder implements Encoder {
>   public void encode(InputStream in, OutputStream out) throws EncoderException;
> }
> Base64 and Hex will then be able to implement these interfaces.
