    The more robust (and new in Qt5) way of doing this is QFINDTESTDATA in the test code.



autotests/base64benchmark.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49288>

    should be static, it doesn't use any members



autotests/base64benchmark.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49289>

    could use reserve(size) for speed

    missing space after first comma.
    
    (I would remove the second comma)

    The Qt way to do this is to take a pointer, rather than a non-const ref. It makes things clearer when reading the calling code.



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49292>

    @since 5.5, in all new methods



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49296>

    The Qt way would be to use an enum rather than a bool, again to make the calling code more readable.

    I doubt this whole comment will be picked up by doxygen, it doesn't seem to document anything in particular...
    
    Also, this particular line reads very strangely...



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49298>

    Any reason to use protected instead of private here?
    
    And then, if private, the two static things  should be file-static instead (no need to pollute the header)



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49299>

    typo, Constructs



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49300>

    this "withCRLF" everywhere is definitely worth an enum



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49301>

    please port the documentation to the new namespace. Grep for KMime everywhere...



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49302>

    kFatal is deprecated



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49303>

    move to cpp



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49304>

    That is brief indeed :-)
    
    (merge with next line)



src/kcodecs.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49305>

    move all 3 members to a d pointer, if this class should indeed be public.



src/kcodecs.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49307>

    These qDebugs should be commented out, or converted to qCDebug with a default to off.
    
    No point in spamming users for data conversion errors, Qt definitely doesn't do that.



src/kcodecs.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49308>

    Always use QMutexLocker instead.



src/kcodecs.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49309>

    Yes, it does. Use value() instead.



src/kcodecs.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49310>

    This could be a qWarning (programmer error).



src/kcodecs.cpp
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49311>

    QScopedPointer would remove the need for all the "delete dec" statement in all 3 return paths.



src/kcodecsbase64.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49314>

    Does this class actually need to be exported?
    
    Isn't it enough to let apps find codecs by name, just like in Qt?
    
    This removes the need for exporting all the codec implementation classes.



src/kcodecsbase64.h
<https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/121047/#comment49313>

    What a weird codec name??

This patch makes KCodecs::decodeRFC2047String() use the "more robust" implementation from KMime, and adds KCodecs::encodeRFC2047String() counterpart - also using implementation from KMime.

I believe that having a proper and more robust implementation available in a more generic framework like KCodecs is better, than if it was hidden in the KMime framework. As a result, we can make KMime framework to use KCodecs (it already depends on it anyway) for all the encodings, and only leave classes for storing and parsing the "high-level" message/rfc822 messages, and headers. It also reduces code duplication, and makes all applications use the same encode/decode implementations (which is cool, right? :-))

I believe that this is a rather useful tool that could find wide adoption outside PIM, therefor I decided not to move it from KPimUtils to KMime, but instead move all the interesting, and multi-purpose parts from KMime into KCodecs.
