final class RFC2231Utils extends Object
Utility class to decode/encode character set on HTTP Header fields based on RFC 2231. This implementation adheres to RFC 5987 in particular, which was defined for HTTP headers

RFC 5987 builds on RFC 2231, but has lesser scope like mandatory charset definition and no parameter continuation

    • decodeText

      static String decodeText(String encodedText) throws UnsupportedEncodingException
      Decodes a string of text obtained from a HTTP header as per RFC 2231 Eg 1. us-ascii'en-us'This%20is%20%2A%2A%2Afun%2A%2A%2A will be decoded to This is ***fun*** Eg 2. iso-8859-1'en'%A3%20rate will be decoded to £ rate. Eg 3. UTF-8''%c2%a3%20and%20%e2%82%ac%20rates will be decoded to £ and € rates.
      Parameters:
      encodedText - - Text to be decoded has a format of <charset>'<language>'<encoded_value> and ASCII only
      Returns:
      Decoded text based on charset encoding
      Throws:
      UnsupportedEncodingException - The requested character set wasn't found.

    • fromHex

      private static byte[] fromHex(String text)
      Converts text to their corresponding Hex value.
      Parameters:
      text - - ASCII text input
      Returns:
      Byte array of characters decoded from ASCII table

    • getJavaCharset

    • hasEncodedValue

      static boolean hasEncodedValue(String paramName)
      Tests if asterisk (*) at the end of parameter name to indicate, if it has charset and language information to decode the value.
      Parameters:
      paramName - The parameter, which is being checked.
      Returns:
      true, if encoded as per RFC 2231, false otherwise

    • stripDelimiter

      static String stripDelimiter(String paramName)
      If paramName has Asterisk (*) at the end, it will be stripped off, else the passed value will be returned.
      Parameters:
      paramName - The parameter, which is being inspected.
      Returns:
      stripped paramName of Asterisk (*), if RFC2231 encoded
