## Class DERUniversalString

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Object
  - - org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Primitive
    - - org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1UniversalString
      - - org.bouncycastle.asn1.DERUniversalString

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ASN1Encodable, ASN1String, Encodable

      public class DERUniversalString
      extends ASN1UniversalString

  DER UniversalString object - encodes UNICODE (ISO 10646) characters using 32-bit format. In Java we have no way of representing this directly so we rely on byte arrays to carry these.
