Constructor Detail

DERIA5String

public DERIA5String(java.lang.String string)
Basic constructor - without validation.
Parameters:
string - the base string to use..

DERIA5String

public DERIA5String(java.lang.String string,
                    boolean validate)
Constructor with optional validation.
Parameters:
string - the base string to wrap.
validate - whether or not to check the string.
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if validate is true and the string contains characters that should not be in an IA5String.
Method Detail

getInstance

public static DERIA5String getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)
Return an IA5 string from the passed in object
Parameters:
obj - a DERIA5String or an object that can be converted into one.
Returns:
a DERIA5String instance, or null.
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.

getInstance

public static DERIA5String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                       boolean explicit)
Return an IA5 String from a tagged object.
Parameters:
obj - the tagged object holding the object we want
explicit - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged false otherwise.
Returns:
a DERIA5String instance, or null.
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

getString

public java.lang.String getString()
Description copied from interface: ASN1String
Return a Java String representation of this STRING type's content.
Specified by:
getString in interface ASN1String
Following copied from interface: org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1String
Returns:
a Java String representation of this STRING.

toString

public java.lang.String toString()
Overrides:
toString in class java.lang.Object

getOctets

public byte[] getOctets()

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Overrides:
hashCode in class ASN1Primitive

isIA5String

public static boolean isIA5String(java.lang.String str)
return true if the passed in String can be represented without loss as an IA5String, false otherwise.
Parameters:
str - the string to check.
Returns:
true if character set in IA5String set, false otherwise.
