The All-in-One Guide to Java Programming

Java 8 has tons of new features. Here are some of them:
* java.util.Base64
* Cryptography upgrades (lots)
* JDBC 4.2
* Repeatable Annotations
* Annotations on types




# Base64
Until now, Java developers had to rely on third-party libraries for encoding and decoding
Base-64. Since it is such a frequent operation, a large project will typically contain several different
implementations of Base64. For example, Apache commons-codec, Spring, and Guava all have separate implementations.

For this reason, Java 8 has `java.util.Base64`.  It acts as a factory for Base64 encoders and decoders. It has the following methods:

* `getEncoder()`
* `getDecoder()`
* `getUrlEncoder()`
* `getUrlDecoder()`

Each factory method returns either an encoder or the decoder.

The URL Base64 Encoder provides an encoding that is URL and Filename safe (62 is - and 63 is _ ).
