Better is to use static Base64.decodeBase64 which works on String as well and makes it cleaner: private static final byte[] PIXEL_BYTES = Base64.decodeBase64(PIXEL_B64); Base64.decode method in not static and therefore cannot be used on class name.

You just saved me hours of work. I'll post how I did this in spring 3.0. I think Apache has updated the Base64 library since you posted this too - I had to make a Base64 instance and it didn't let me call it statically. No biggie though Thanks a lot. Kristian Thanks man!

I tried the code above, but cannot resolve pixelAsBase64. Where is this defined? Matthew, This is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I tried the code above, but cannot resolve pixelAsBase64.
