    - #### getTagClass

          int getTagClass()

      Return the tag class associated with this object.
      Returns:
        the tag class.

    - #### getTagNo

          int getTagNo()

      Return the tag number associated with this object.
      Returns:
        the tag number.

    - #### hasContextTag

          boolean hasContextTag()

    - #### hasContextTag

          boolean hasContextTag(int tagNo)

    - #### hasTag

          boolean hasTag(int tagClass,
                         int tagNo)

    - #### hasTagClass

          boolean hasTagClass(int tagClass)

    - #### parseBaseUniversal

          ASN1Encodable parseBaseUniversal(boolean declaredExplicit,
                                           int baseTagNo)
                                    throws java.io.IOException

      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### parseExplicitBaseObject

          ASN1Encodable parseExplicitBaseObject()
                                         throws java.io.IOException

      Needed for open types, until we have better type-guided parsing support. Use sparingly for other purposes, and prefer `parseExplicitBaseTagged()` or `parseBaseUniversal(boolean, int)` where possible. Before using, check for matching tag `class` and `number`.
      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### parseExplicitBaseTagged

          ASN1TaggedObjectParser parseExplicitBaseTagged()
                                                  throws java.io.IOException

      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`

    - #### parseImplicitBaseTagged

          ASN1TaggedObjectParser parseImplicitBaseTagged(int baseTagClass,
                                                         int baseTagNo)
                                                  throws java.io.IOException

      Throws:
        `java.io.IOException`
