    • deserializeFromBase64

      public static java.util.Map<java.lang.String,​? extends java.io.Serializable> deserializeFromBase64​(java.lang.String rawString) throws java.io.IOException
      Deserializes a Base64-encoded String into a HashMap. Both the keys and values must implement Serializable.
      Parameters:
      rawString - the String contents containing the map to be deserialized
      Returns:
      the attributes, parsed into a Map
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - if the contents cannot be parsed for any reason

    • serializeToBase64

      public static java.lang.String serializeToBase64​(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,​java.io.Serializable> map) throws java.io.IOException
      Serializes a Map and formats it into a Base64-encoded String. For ease of serialization, the Map contents are first copied into a HashMap, then serialized into a byte array that is encoded as a Base64 String.
      Parameters:
      map - the Map to serialize
      Returns:
      a String representing the serialized form of the Map
      Throws:
      java.io.IOException - If serialization cannot be done
