  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getInstance

          public static ASN1ObjectDescriptor getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

      Return an ObjectDescriptor from the passed in object.
      Parameters:
        `obj` - an ASN1ObjectDescriptor or an object that can be converted into one.
      Returns:
        an ASN1ObjectDescriptor instance, or null.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the object cannot be converted.

    - #### getInstance

          public static ASN1ObjectDescriptor getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject taggedObject,
                                                         boolean declaredExplicit)

      Return an ObjectDescriptor from a tagged object.
      Parameters:
        `taggedObject` - the tagged object holding the object we want.
        `declaredExplicit` - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged, false otherwise.
      Returns:
        an ASN1ObjectDescriptor instance, or null.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

    - #### getTagged

          public static ASN1ObjectDescriptor getTagged(ASN1TaggedObject taggedObject,
                                                       boolean declaredExplicit)

    - #### getBaseGraphicString

          public ASN1GraphicString getBaseGraphicString()

    - #### hashCode

          public int hashCode()

      Specified by:
        `hashCode` in class `ASN1Primitive`
