    Fix Version/s: 1.4

> REQ: Streaming codecs
> ---------------------
>
>                 Key: CODEC-8
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CODEC-8
>             Project: Commons Codec
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.2
>         Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: All
>            Reporter: Sergei S. Ivanov
>             Fix For: 1.4

>         Attachments: Base64.diff

> 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.
