Error description
In IBM Integration Bus V9 a utility class called "Base64" was moved from the com.ibm.broker.javacompute package (javacompute.jar) to an internal utility package. The Base64.Class was never officially part of the Broker API, but some customers were using it. Two new calls are added to the MbNode API to create an officially supported Base64 interface. These are called: MbNode.base64Encode((byte[ ] clearText) Where clearText a byte array to be encoded. The call returns a String that represents the encoded text. MbNode.base64.Decode(String base64Text) . Where base64Text is a String to be decoded. The call returns a byte array that represents the Base64 decoded text.

Problem conclusion
The Base64 Class has been reinstated in the com.ibm.broker.javacompute package, but its use is deprecated. Two new methods have been added to the MBNode API to perform Base64 encoding and decoding. --------------------------------------------------------------- The fix is targeted for delivery in the following PTFs: Version Maintenance Level v10.0 10.0.0.8 The latest available maintenance can be obtained from: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006041 If the maintenance level is not yet available,information on its planned availability can be found on: http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=849&uid=swg27006308 ---------------------------------------------------------------
