      Description copied from class: `ASN1Object`
      Method providing a primitive representation of this object suitable for encoding.
      Specified by:
        `toASN1Primitive` in interface `ASN1Encodable`
      Specified by:
        `toASN1Primitive` in class `ASN1Object`

    - #### equals

          public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj,
                                boolean inOrder)

      Deprecated.
      Parameters:

    - #### hashCode

          public int hashCode()

      Deprecated.
      Overrides:

    - #### equals

          public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

      Deprecated.
      test for equality - note: case is ignored.
      Overrides:

    - #### toString

          public java.lang.String toString(boolean reverse,
                                           java.util.Hashtable oidSymbols)

      Deprecated.
      convert the structure to a string - if reverse is true the oids and values are listed out starting with the last element in the sequence (ala RFC 2253), otherwise the string will begin with the first element of the structure. If no string definition for the oid is found in oidSymbols the string value of the oid is added. Two standard symbol tables are provided DefaultSymbols, and RFC2253Symbols as part of this class.
      Parameters:
        `reverse` - if true start at the end of the sequence and work back.
        `oidSymbols` - look up table strings for oids.
