Ohh sorry, but I am not sure you will find a drop in replacement, the
commons-codec version does not convert to Strings always works with byte
arrays, but you can change a little the code, for example

// sun code
String encodedData = Base64.encode(data);

// new code
String encodedData = null;
try {
    encodedData = new String(Base64.encodeBase64(data), "UTF-8");
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
    // can not happen, UTF-8 is always supported
}

Hope this helps
