DER IA5String object - this is a ISO 646 (ASCII) string encoding code points 0 to 127.

Explicit character set escape sequences are not allowed.

  • Constructor Details

    • DERIA5String

      public DERIA5String(String string)
      Basic constructor - without validation.
      Parameters:
      string - the base string to use..

    • DERIA5String

      public DERIA5String(String string, boolean validate)
      Constructor with optional validation.
      Parameters:
      string - the base string to wrap.
      validate - whether or not to check the string.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if validate is true and the string contains characters that should not be in an IA5String.

    • getInstance

      public static DERIA5String getInstance(Object obj)
      Return an IA5 string from the passed in object
      Parameters:
      obj - a DERIA5String or an object that can be converted into one.
      Returns:
      a DERIA5String instance, or null.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.

    • getInstance

      public static DERIA5String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj, boolean explicit)
      Return an IA5 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.
      Returns:
      a DERIA5String instance, or null.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.
