Issue Description
Trying to encode the string using Ti.Utils.base64enocde method as below,
Ti.Utils.base64encode('Test実験室じっけんしつ').
It returns the encoded string :
VGVzdOWun+mok+WupA==
But trying to encode the same string in
https://www.base64encode.org/
returns the encoded string : VGVzdOWun+mok+WupOOBmOOBo+OBkeOCk+OBl+OBpA==
Ti.Utils.base64encode method encodes the partial string only.
Steps to reproduce/Testcase
Create a new classic default application
open the app.js file
replace the code
var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor:"white"});
var testStr = "Test実験室じっけんしつ";
var encoded = Ti.Utils.base64encode(testStr);
Ti.API.info(encoded);
win.open();
#Run
The return string don't match with the
https://www.base64encode.org/ string
Workaround:
var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor:"white"}); var Base64 = { _keyStr: "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789+/=", encode: function(input) { var output = ""; var chr1, chr2, chr3, enc1, enc2, enc3, enc4; var i = 0; input = Base64._utf8_encode(input); while (i < input.length) { chr1 = input.charCodeAt(i++); chr2 = input.charCodeAt(i++); chr3 = input.charCodeAt(i++); enc1 = chr1 >> 2; enc2 = ((chr1 & 3) << 4) | (chr2 >> 4); enc3 = ((chr2 & 15) << 2) | (chr3 >> 6); enc4 = chr3 & 63; if (isNaN(chr2)) { enc3 = enc4 = 64; } else if (isNaN(chr3)) { enc4 = 64; } output = output + this._keyStr.charAt(enc1) + this._keyStr.charAt(enc2) + this._keyStr.charAt(enc3) + this._keyStr.charAt(enc4); } return output; }, decode: function(input) { var output = ""; var chr1, chr2, chr3; var enc1, enc2, enc3, enc4; var i = 0; input = input.replace(/[^A-Za-z0-9\+\/\=]/g, ""); while (i < input.length) { enc1 = this._keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++)); enc2 = this._keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++)); enc3 = this._keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++)); enc4 = this._keyStr.indexOf(input.charAt(i++)); chr1 = (enc1 << 2) | (enc2 >> 4); chr2 = ((enc2 & 15) << 4) | (enc3 >> 2); chr3 = ((enc3 & 3) << 6) | enc4; output = output + String.fromCharCode(chr1); if (enc3 != 64) { output = output + String.fromCharCode(chr2); } if (enc4 != 64) { output = output + String.fromCharCode(chr3); } } output = Base64._utf8_decode(output); return output; }, _utf8_encode: function(string) { string = string.replace(/\r\n/g, "\n"); var utftext = ""; for (var n = 0; n < string.length; n++) { var c = string.charCodeAt(n); if (c < 128) { utftext += String.fromCharCode(c); } else if ((c > 127) && (c < 2048)) { utftext += String.fromCharCode((c >> 6) | 192); utftext += String.fromCharCode((c & 63) | 128); } else { utftext += String.fromCharCode((c >> 12) | 224); utftext += String.fromCharCode(((c >> 6) & 63) | 128); utftext += String.fromCharCode((c & 63) | 128); } } return utftext; }, _utf8_decode: function(utftext) { var string = ""; var i = 0; var c = c1 = c2 = 0; while (i < utftext.length) { c = utftext.charCodeAt(i); if (c < 128) { string += String.fromCharCode(c); i++; } else if ((c > 191) && (c < 224)) { c2 = utftext.charCodeAt(i + 1); string += String.fromCharCode(((c & 31) << 6) | (c2 & 63)); i += 2; } else { c2 = utftext.charCodeAt(i + 1); c3 = utftext.charCodeAt(i + 2); string += String.fromCharCode(((c & 15) << 12) | ((c2 & 63) << 6) | (c3 & 63)); i += 3; } } return string; } }; var testStr = "Test実験室じっけんしつ"; //var encoded = Ti.Utils.base64encode('testStr'); var encoded = Base64.encode(testStr); Ti.API.info(encoded); win.open();[~emerriman] We should do this together with the related issues (TIMOB-16606, TIMOB-15590) and TIMOB-9111 which would be a breaking change by removing the "\n" characters from the string. I would do it for 7.0.0 then, but if this urges, we can do the encoding fix before and the new-line changes in 7.0.0. *EDIT*: TIMOB-9111 is ready for review and will be part of 7.0.0. In the mean-time, here is a tiny Hyperloop solution that can be used to use the correct encoding today - without an SDK upgrade or native module:
var NSUTF8StringEncoding = require('Foundation').NSUTF8StringEncoding; var myString = 'Test実験室じっけんしつ'; var base64EncodedData = myString.dataUsingEncoding(NSUTF8StringEncoding); var base64EncodedString = base64EncodedData.base64EncodedStringWithOptions(0); Ti.API.info('Base 64 Encoded: ' + base64EncodedString);Closing as a duplicate. If this is in error, please reopen.
