check

DEFAULT: null (i.e. no check symbol)

Specify a check symbol ('*', '~', '$', '=', 'U', 'u') to be appended to encoded output, and verified when decoding.

If null, no check symbol will be appended to encoded output, and decoding of any input containing a check symbol will fail due to misconfiguration.

Throws

IllegalArgumentException

If not null, or a valid symbol.
