从Java 8开始，就有了官方支持的用于Base64编码和解码的API。 随着时间的推移，这可能会成为默认的选择。

该API包括java.util类。Base64及其嵌套类。它支持三种不同的风格:基本的、URL安全的和MIME。

使用“基本”编码的示例代码:

import java.util.Base64;

byte[] bytes = "Hello, World!".getBytes("UTF-8");
String encoded = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(bytes);
byte[] decoded = Base64.getDecoder().decode(encoded);
String decodedStr = new String(decoded, StandardCharsets.UTF_8);

java.util的文档。Base64还包括一些配置编码器和解码器的方法，以及使用不同的类作为输入和输出(字节数组，字符串，ByteBuffers, java。io流)。

不需要使用commons——Sun在Java中附带了base64编码器。你可以这样导入它:

import sun.misc.BASE64Decoder;

然后像这样使用它:

BASE64Decoder decoder = new BASE64Decoder();
byte[] decodedBytes = decoder.decodeBuffer(encodedBytes);

其中encodedBytes是java.lang.String或java.io.InputStream。只是要当心太阳。*类不是Sun的“官方支持”。

编辑:谁能想到这将是我发表过的最具争议的答案呢?我知道太阳。*不支持或保证软件包继续存在，我确实了解Commons并一直在使用它。然而，发帖者要求一个“包含在Sun Java 6中”的类，这就是我试图回答的问题。总的来说，我同意Commons是最好的方式。

编辑2:正如amir75在下面指出的那样，Java 6+附带了JAXB，其中包含支持的编码/解码Base64的代码。请看下面Jeremy Ross的回答。

这是我自己的实现，如果它对某人有用的话:

public class Base64Coder {

    // The line separator string of the operating system.
    private static final String systemLineSeparator = System.getProperty("line.separator");

    // Mapping table from 6-bit nibbles to Base64 characters.

       static {
          int i=0;

          for (char c='a'; c<='z'; c++) map1[i++] = c;
          for (char c='0'; c<='9'; c++) map1[i++] = c;
          map1[i++] = '+'; map1[i++] = '/'; }

    // Mapping table from Base64 characters to 6-bit nibbles.
    private static final byte[] map2 = new byte[128];
       static {
          for (int i=0; i<map2.length; i++) map2[i] = -1;
          for (int i=0; i<64; i++) map2[map1[i]] = (byte)i; }

如果你喜欢基于性能的解决方案，那么你可以使用“MiGBase64”

http://migbase64.sourceforge.net/

public class Base64Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    String encodeToString = Base64.encodeToString("JavaTips.net".getBytes(), true);
    System.out.println("encodeToString " + encodeToString);
    byte[] decodedBytes = Base64.decode(encodeToString.getBytes());
    System.out.println("decodedBytes " + new String(decodedBytes));
    }
}

使用java8 -

    public static String encodeString(String plainString) {
        return  Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(plainString.getBytes());
    }

    public static String decodeString(String encodedString) {
        byte[] bytes = Base64.getDecoder().decode(encodedString);
        return new String(bytes);
    }

作为sun.misc的替代品。BASE64Decoder或非核心库，请查看javax.mail.internet.MimeUtility.decode()。

public static byte[] encode(byte[] b) throws Exception {
    ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    OutputStream b64os = MimeUtility.encode(baos, "base64");
    b64os.write(b);
    b64os.close();
    return baos.toByteArray();
}
public static byte[] decode(byte[] b) throws Exception {
    ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(b);
    InputStream b64is = MimeUtility.decode(bais, "base64");
    byte[] tmp = new byte[b.length];
    int n = b64is.read(tmp);
    byte[] res = new byte[n];
    System.arraycopy(tmp, 0, res, 0, n);
    return res;
}
