public abstract class ASN1IA5String

extends ASN1Primitive

implements ASN1String

ASN.1 IA5String object - this is a ISO 646 (ASCII) string encoding code points 0 to 127.

Explicit character set escape sequences are not allowed.

Method Summary

static ASN1IA5String	getInstance(java.lang.Object obj) Return an IA5 string from the passed in object
byte[]	getOctets()
java.lang.String	getString() Return a Java String representation of this STRING type's content.
int	hashCode()
static boolean	isIA5String(java.lang.String str) return true if the passed in String can be represented without loss as an IA5String, false otherwise.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static ASN1IA5String getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

Return an IA5 string from the passed in object

Parameters:

obj - an ASN1IA5String or an object that can be converted into one.

Returns:

a ASN1IA5String instance, or null.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.

getInstance

public static ASN1IA5String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject taggedObject,
                                        boolean explicit)

Return an IA5 String from a tagged object.

Parameters:

taggedObject - the tagged object holding the object we want

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

Returns:

an ASN1IA5String instance, or null.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

getString

public final java.lang.String getString()

Description copied from interface: ASN1String

Return a Java String representation of this STRING type's content.

Specified by:

getString in interface ASN1String

Returns:

a Java String representation of this STRING.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

getOctets

public final byte[] getOctets()

hashCode

public final int hashCode()

Specified by:

hashCode in class ASN1Primitive

isIA5String

public static boolean isIA5String(java.lang.String str)

return true if the passed in String can be represented without loss as an IA5String, false otherwise.

Parameters:

str - the string to check.

Returns:

true if character set in IA5String set, false otherwise.
