Class SubjectPublicKeyInfo

java.lang.Object

org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Object

org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.SubjectPublicKeyInfo

All Implemented Interfaces:

ASN1Encodable, Encodable

public class SubjectPublicKeyInfo
extends ASN1Object

The object that contains the public key stored in a certficate.

The getEncoded() method in the public keys in the JCE produces a DER encoded one of these.

SubjectPublicKeyInfo

public SubjectPublicKeyInfo(AlgorithmIdentifier algId,
                            ASN1Encodable publicKey)
                     throws java.io.IOException

Throws:

java.io.IOException

SubjectPublicKeyInfo

public SubjectPublicKeyInfo(AlgorithmIdentifier algId,
                            byte[] publicKey)

Method Detail

getInstance

public static SubjectPublicKeyInfo getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                               boolean explicit)

getInstance

public static SubjectPublicKeyInfo getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

getAlgorithm

public AlgorithmIdentifier getAlgorithm()

parsePublicKey

public ASN1Primitive parsePublicKey()
                             throws java.io.IOException

for when the public key is an encoded object - if the bitstring can't be decoded this routine throws an IOException.

Returns:

the public key as an ASN.1 primitive.

Throws:

java.io.IOException - - if the bit string doesn't represent a DER encoded object.

getPublicKeyData

public DERBitString getPublicKeyData()

for when the public key is raw bits.

Returns:

the public key as the raw bit string...

toASN1Primitive

public ASN1Primitive toASN1Primitive()

Produce an object suitable for an ASN1OutputStream.

 SubjectPublicKeyInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
                          algorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
                          publicKey BIT STRING }
 

Specified by:

toASN1Primitive in interface ASN1Encodable

Specified by:

toASN1Primitive in class ASN1Object

Returns:

a primitive representation of this object.
