Append Encoded Binary Data to StringBuilder

Demonstrates how to append encoded binary data to the contenets of a StringBuilder. Android™

// Important: Don't forget to include the call to System.loadLibrary
// as shown at the bottom of this code sample.
package com.test;

import android.app.Activity;
import com.chilkatsoft.*;

import android.widget.TextView;
import android.os.Bundle;

public class SimpleActivity extends Activity {

  private static final String TAG = "Chilkat";

  // Called when the activity is first created.
  @Override
  public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    boolean success = false;

    CkBinData bd = new CkBinData();

    success = bd.LoadFile("qa_data/jpg/starfish.jpg");
    if (success == false) {
        Log.i(TAG, "Failed to load file.");
        return;
        }

    //  For example, let's say we want construct simple JSON containing the base64 representation of the above JPG file.
    CkStringBuilder sb = new CkStringBuilder();
    sb.Append("{ \"jpg\": \"");
    //  GetEncodedSb appends the enocded representation of the binary data to the StringBuiler passed in the 2nd arg.
    bd.GetEncodedSb("base64",sb);
    sb.Append("\" }");

    Log.i(TAG, sb.getAsString());

    //  Output looks like this:
    //   { "jpg": "/9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAg...rcQ+vo//2Q==" }

  }

  static {
      System.loadLibrary("chilkat");

      // Note: If the incorrect library name is passed to System.loadLibrary,
      // then you will see the following error message at application startup:
      //"The application <your-application-name> has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
