  extended by org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Object
      extended by org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Primitive
          extended by org.bouncycastle.asn1.DERT61UTF8String
All Implemented Interfaces:
ASN1Encodable, ASN1String

public class DERT61UTF8String
extends ASN1Primitive
implements ASN1String

DER T61String (also the teletex string) - a "modern" encapsulation that uses UTF-8. If at all possible, avoid this one! It's only for emergencies. Use UTF8String instead.


Constructor Summary
DERT61UTF8String(byte[] string)
          basic constructor - string encoded as a sequence of bytes.
DERT61UTF8String(java.lang.String string)
          basic constructor - with string UTF8 conversion assumed.

static DERT61UTF8String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj, boolean explicit)
          return an T61 String from a tagged object.
static DERT61UTF8String getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)
          return a T61 string from the passed in object.
 byte[] getOctets()

Constructor Detail

DERT61UTF8String

public DERT61UTF8String(byte[] string)
basic constructor - string encoded as a sequence of bytes.


DERT61UTF8String

public DERT61UTF8String(java.lang.String string)
basic constructor - with string UTF8 conversion assumed.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static DERT61UTF8String getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)
return a T61 string from the passed in object. UTF-8 Encoding is assumed in this case.

Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.

getInstance

public static DERT61UTF8String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                           boolean explicit)
return an T61 String from a tagged object. UTF-8 encoding is assumed in this case.

Parameters:
obj - the tagged object holding the object we want
explicit - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged false otherwise.
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

getString

public java.lang.String getString()
Decode the encoded string and return it, UTF8 assumed.

Specified by:
getString in interface ASN1String
Returns:
the decoded String

toString

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

getOctets

public byte[] getOctets()
Return the encoded string as a byte array.

Returns:
the actual bytes making up the encoded body of the T61 string.

hashCode

public int hashCode()
Specified by:
hashCode in class ASN1Primitive
