Hi,

maybe someone here can give me hint.

My input is a string that contains sequences like
...=?ISO-8859-1?Q?blabla?=....

Is there a class that translates this to something useful?

The input string also contains sequences like "=FC" for some german
Umlauts. I am looking for a class transforming this to something readable.

Thank you, Jan.

I only know this from being used in mail messages, but I can't remember
its name. "Quoted Printable" or something. Yep:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quoted-printable>

Apache's Jakarta project seems to have a decoder for it

Thanks :-).

The org.apache.commons.codec.net.QCodec class solved my problem.
