public abstract class ASN1T61String

extends ASN1Primitive

implements ASN1String

ASN.1 T61String (also the teletex string), try not to use this if you don't need to. The standard support the encoding for this has been withdrawn.

Method Summary

static ASN1T61String	getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject taggedObject, boolean explicit) Return an T61 String from a tagged object.
static ASN1T61String	getInstance(java.lang.Object obj) Return a T61 string from the passed in object.
byte[]	getOctets() Return the encoded string as a byte array.
java.lang.String	getString() Decode the encoded string and return it, 8 bit encoding assumed.
int	hashCode()
java.lang.String	toString()

Method Detail

getInstance

public static ASN1T61String getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

Return a T61 string from the passed in object.

Parameters:

obj - an ASN1T61String or an object that can be converted into one.

Returns:

an ASN1T61String instance, or null

Throws:

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

getInstance

public static ASN1T61String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject taggedObject,
                                        boolean explicit)

Return an T61 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 ASN1T61String instance, or null

Throws:

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

getString

public final java.lang.String getString()

Decode the encoded string and return it, 8 bit encoding assumed.

Specified by:

getString in interface ASN1String

Returns:

the decoded String

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

getOctets

public final byte[] getOctets()

Return the encoded string as a byte array.

Returns:

the actual bytes making up the encoded body of the T61 string.

hashCode

public final int hashCode()

Specified by:

hashCode in class ASN1Primitive
