public class DisplayText

extends ASN1Object

implements ASN1Choice

DisplayText class, used in CertificatePolicies X509 V3 extensions (in policy qualifiers).

It stores a string in a chosen encoding. DisplayText ::= CHOICE { ia5String IA5String (SIZE (1..200)), visibleString VisibleString (SIZE (1..200)), bmpString BMPString (SIZE (1..200)), utf8String UTF8String (SIZE (1..200)) }
