- ## Method Details

  - ### decode

    public static void decode(ByteBuffer data, int length, StringBuilder target) throws org.apache.coyote.http2.HpackException
    Decodes a huffman encoded string into the target StringBuilder. There must be enough space left in the buffer for this method to succeed.
    Parameters:
      `data` - The byte buffer
      `length` - The length of data from the buffer to decode
      `target` - The target for the decompressed data
    Throws:
      `org.apache.coyote.http2.HpackException` - If the Huffman encoded value in HPACK headers did not end with EOS padding

  - ### encode

    public static boolean encode(ByteBuffer buffer, String toEncode, boolean forceLowercase)
    Encodes the given string into the buffer. If there is not enough space in the buffer, or the encoded version is bigger than the original it will return false and not modify the buffers position.
    Parameters:
      `buffer` - The buffer to encode into
      `toEncode` - The string to encode
      `forceLowercase` - If the string should be encoded in lower case
    Returns:
      true if encoding succeeded
