      • 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
