Android: using Base64 to encode an Image to String

Question

I downloaded the Base64.java from here:

which contains method encodeToString() but its very low sized compared to what i had previously. Its just some 750 lines of code.

the previous 1 was downloaded from here:

which has 2064 lines of code but doesn't have the method encodeToString() instead it has only encodeToFile() method.

Which of these is more robust?

My purpose of using Base64 is to convert a ByteArray i get from Camera Api and send it to a Server(the encoded string).

Thank you

Well, if you want to send the encoded image to your server, you should encode it into a String:

byte[] imageBytes = yourByteArray;
String encodedImage = Base64.encodeToString(imageBytes, Base64.DEFAULT);
