Hi,

Please help review the fix for the following two bugs:

(1) 8007379: Base64.getMimeDecoder().decode() throws IAE for a non-base64 character after padding We fixed the similar issue in 8006530, it appears there is "yet another" corner case to close here. As described in the bug report, the calculation for output buffer size for such case is incorrect when decoding in mime mode. The proposed change should fix the problem.

(2) 8008925: Base64.getMimeDecoder().decode() does not ignore padding chars The change is to clarify the specification that "the padding character(s) is not required for decoding. BUT, if the padding character(s) does appear, they must be correctly encoded."

Thanks, -Sherman
