Base64 encoding error

[stefan-juergens]

Hi.
Your schema validator is just fine, but i get an error while validating base64 encoded data.

Part of the schema is:
...
"signature": {
"type": "string",
"contentEncoding": "base64"
},
...

The JSON data is:
"signature": "cckZGzGyCvsX0RRKqc94VuFlX83/XLoZjvXMT0beE79PwVsBwjwyCYJqPEPZnz0RDvl0nnV3A5+T0GCZcJAsCuZUAWhvDz6ezHkU2eBGcdwRzoL7FdaVcGeVZSJeuzkl"

The exception is:
.../signature with "Content encoding failed on: base64. Reason: Illegal base64 character 2f"]

I have no idea why the JSON data is wrong. In my opinion it is a valid base64 string.

Do you have any idea?

Ah... I looked into your source.
I see you use a Base64.getUrlDecoder - why?
In this case you get the exception.
But using a normal Base64.getDecoder all works
Is there a special reason you use a UrlDecoder?
I thought that all kind of data can be encoded as Base64.

Greetings
