Constructor Details

ASN1OctetString

public ASN1OctetString(byte[] string)

Parameters:

string - the octets making up the octet string.

Method Details

getInstance

public static ASN1OctetString getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj, boolean explicit)

return an Octet String from a tagged object.

Parameters:

obj - the tagged object holding the object we want.

explicit - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged false otherwise.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

getInstance

public static ASN1OctetString getInstance(Object obj)

return an Octet String from the given object.

Parameters:

obj - the object we want converted.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.

getOctetStream

public InputStream getOctetStream()

Specified by:

getOctetStream in interface ASN1OctetStringParser

parser

public ASN1OctetStringParser parser()

getOctets

public byte[] getOctets()

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Description copied from class: Object

Returns an integer hash code for this object. By contract, any two objects for which Object.equals(java.lang.Object) returns true must return the same hash code value. This means that subclasses of Object usually override both methods or neither method.

Note that hash values must not change over time unless information used in equals comparisons also changes.

See Writing a correct hashCode method if you intend implementing your own hashCode method.

Specified by:

hashCode in class ASN1Primitive

Returns:

this object's hash code.

See Also:

Object.equals(java.lang.Object)

getLoadedObject

public ASN1Primitive getLoadedObject()

Specified by:

getLoadedObject in interface InMemoryRepresentable

toString

public String toString()

Description copied from class: Object

Returns a string containing a concise, human-readable description of this object. Subclasses are encouraged to override this method and provide an implementation that takes into account the object's type and data. The default implementation is equivalent to the following expression:

   getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())

See Writing a useful toString method if you intend implementing your own toString method.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

a printable representation of this object.
