    public abstract class Utility

extends java.lang.Object

Utility class supplying static methods. Date serialization is based on the algorithms published by Peter Baum (http://www.capecod.net/~pbaum). All date handling is done according to the W3C Schema specification, which uses a proleptic Gregorian calendar with no year 0. Note that this differs from the Java date handling, which uses a discontinuous Gregorian calendar.

    public static void encodeChunk(int base,
                                   byte[] byts,
                                   java.lang.StringBuffer buff)

  Encode a chunk of data to base64 encoding. Converts the next three bytes of data into four characters of text representation, using padding at the end of less than three bytes of data remain.

  Parameters:
    `base` - starting offset within byte array
    `byts` - byte data array
    `buff` - buffer for encoded text

### serializeBase64

    public static java.lang.String serializeBase64(byte[] byts)

  Serialize byte array to base64 text. In keeping with the specification, this adds a line break every 76 characters in the encoded representation.

  Parameters:
    `byts` - byte data array
  Returns:
    base64 encoded text

### resizeArray

    public static java.lang.Object resizeArray(int size,
                                               java.lang.Object base)

  Resize array of arbitrary type.

  Parameters:
    `size` - new aray size
    `base` - array to be resized
  Returns:
    resized array, with all data to minimum of the two sizes copied

### growArray

    public static java.lang.Object growArray(java.lang.Object base)

  Grow array of arbitrary type. The returned array is double the size of the original array, providing this is at least the defined minimum size.

  Parameters:
    `base` - array to be grown
  Returns:
    array of twice the size as original array, with all data copied

### arrayListFactory

    public static java.util.List arrayListFactory()

  Factory method to create a `java.util.ArrayList` as the implementation of a `java.util.List`.

  Returns:
    new `java.util.ArrayList`

### deserializeList

    public static java.util.ArrayList deserializeList(java.lang.String text,
                                                      IListItemDeserializer ideser)
                                               throws JiBXException

  Convert whitespace-separated list of values. This implements the whitespace skipping, calling the supplied item deserializer for handling each individual value.

  Parameters:
    `text` - value to be converted
    `ideser` - list item deserializer
  Returns:
    list of deserialized items (`null` if input `null`, or if nonrecoverable error)
  Throws:
    `JiBXException` - if error in deserializing text

### deserializeTokenList

    public static java.lang.String[] deserializeTokenList(java.lang.String text)
                                                   throws JiBXException

  Deserialize a list of whitespace-separated tokens into an array of strings.

  Parameters:
    `text` - value text
  Returns:
    created class instance
  Throws:
    `JiBXException` - on error in marshalling

### serializeTokenList

    public static java.lang.String serializeTokenList(java.lang.String[] tokens)

  Serialize an array of strings into a whitespace-separated token list.

  Parameters:
    `tokens` - array of strings to be serialized
  Returns:
    list text
