Awesome! I’m excited to include it and I put it to good use in the XML parser I’ll be committing soon. I’ll be sure to mention you for the ByteArray support in that package as well. Thanks Steve!

Evan: Sure, go ahead. I believe the Apache Software License 2.0 is compatible with the MIT License that this utility has been released under, so feel free to do whatever you need to integrate it with AS3Commons.

Hello Steve!

I’ve found your class very handy for serializing binary data into an XML structure (like everyone else probably!). I’ve just joined the AS3Commons project and would like to include references to your library in of the classes I’d like to commit.

Are you open to commiting this code to the AS3Commons project? http://code.google.com/p/as3-commons/

Thanks, Evan

@Steve: Thanks for the class. Much better to be able to reuse someone else’s, than to have to reinvent the wheel myself

@Paulius: I’m curious, how does encoding XML with base64 “save a lot of traffic”? Base64 encoding will produce 4 bytes for every 3 bytes of original data; in other words, it adds 33% of overhead. If you’re looking to save traffic, a good first step would be to switch from XML to something leaner, maybe even your own custom binary format, on which you can then use base64 for its original purpose
