    - #### OtherName

          public OtherName(ASN1ObjectIdentifier typeID,
                           ASN1Encodable value)

      Base constructor.
      Parameters:
        `typeID` - the type of the other name.
        `value` - the ANY object that represents the value.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getInstance

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

      OtherName factory method.
      Parameters:
        `obj` - the object used to construct an instance of `OtherName`. It must be an instance of `OtherName` or `ASN1Sequence`.
      Returns:
        the instance of `OtherName` built from the supplied object.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the object passed to the factory is not an instance of `OtherName` or something that can be converted into an appropriate `ASN1Sequence`.

    - #### getTypeID

          public ASN1ObjectIdentifier getTypeID()

    - #### getValue

          public ASN1Encodable getValue()

    - #### toASN1Primitive

          public ASN1Primitive toASN1Primitive()

      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`
      Returns:
        a primitive representation of this object.
