Problem (bug?) with basic auth js script after upgrade from 0.9.6 to 1.0.0

[intest]

I've just upgraded Karate from 0.9.6 to 1.0.0 and I'm struggling with basic auth. Previously it worked perfect, now I'm getting this:

:karate-runner:test FAILED
nameOfTheRunner > [7.1:119] Scenario title FAILED    
org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError at AssertionUtils.java:39

And these details in the report:

org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError: >>>> js failed:
01: function fn(creds) {
02:     var temp = creds.username + ':' + creds.password;
03:     var Base64 = Java.type('java.util.Base64');
04:     var encoded = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(temp.bytes);
05:     return 'Basic ' + encoded;
06:   }
<<<<
org.graalvm.polyglot.PolyglotException
- java.util.Base64$Encoder.encode(Base64.java:261)
- java.util.Base64$Encoder.encodeToString(Base64.java:315)

	at org.junit.jupiter.api.AssertionUtils.fail(AssertionUtils.java:39)
	at org.junit.jupiter.api.Assertions.fail(Assertions.java:117)

Any ideas? Is it a bug in Karate or am I doing something wrong? (beside the upgrade I didn't change anything else)

@intest please read this part of the release notes: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/1.0-upgrade-guide#javabean-property-short-cuts-dont-work-in-all-cases

I forgot to metion, that I tried it also and I got:

org.opentest4j.AssertionFailedError: >>>> js failed:
01: function fn(creds) {
02:     var temp = creds.username + ':' + creds.password;
03:     var Base64 = Java.type('java.util.Base64');
04:     var encoded = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(temp.getBytes());
05:     return 'Basic ' + encoded;
06: }
<<<<
org.graalvm.polyglot.PolyglotException: TypeError: temp.getBytes is not a function
- <js>.fn(Unnamed:4)

Also tried with var encoded = Base64.encoder.encodeToString(temp.getBytes()); and still the same.
I'm not into JS so much, so I really don't know how to fix it. I would be really grateful for help.

@intest sorry this worked for others so you are certainly missing something. please follow this process: https://github.com/intuit/karate/wiki/How-to-Submit-an-Issue

To use the toBytes() the object needs to be a string. I think I stumbled on this Peter but forgot to report but it’s just this engine that’s “less forgiving”. @intest do temp.toString().getBytes()

It works! Thank you so much @joelpramos :)
