Subject: HMAC/RSA-SHA1 output not properly URI-encoded
Hi Keith, First of all, thanks for Net::OAuth (and OAuth?). :) The HMAC-SHA1 and RSA-SHA1 signatures are not being properly URI- encoded. Section 9.2.1 of the spec says: oauth_signature is set to the calculated [HMAC-SHA1] digest octet string, first base64-encoded per [RFC2045] section 6.8, then URL- encoded per Parameter Encoding. Section 9.3.1 of the spec says: oauth_signature is set to [the output of RSA signing], first base64- encoded per [RFC2045] section 6.8, then URL-encoded per Parameter Encoding. If you look at Net::OAuth's t/01-spec.t, line 72, you can see the following check: is($request->signature, 'Gcg/323lvAsQ707p+y41y14qWfY'); The / and + are not properly encoded. The actual signature should be: 'Gcg%2F323lvAsQ707p%2By41y14qWfY'. Ditto for t/02-rsa.t and its check on line 48. Shawn

Thinking more about it, this is likely the desired behavior. The URI- encoding would be for transmission across the wire. So this isn't a bug. :) Shawn
