Class iaik.asn1.ASN 

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----iaik.asn1.ASN
public class ASN
extends Object
implements Cloneable
The ASN class represents the ASN.1 types. These types are represented at the Java level with ASN.XXX literals.

This class also acts as an factory for creating ASN.1 OBJECT subclasses for various kinds of Java objects.

Constructors

o ASN 
 protected ASN(int tag,
               String name)
Create a new ASN.1 type with given tag and name.

Methods

o init 
 protected static void init()
o create 
 public static ASN1Object create(ASN type) throws InstantiationException
Produces a new ASN.1 object, given the ASN.1 type name of it. If given null, returns a ASN.1 NULL object.

Throws: InstantiationException
if the internal factory couldn't create an instance of requested type
o create 
 public static ASN1Object create(ASN type,
                                 Object value) throws InstantiationException
Produces a new ASN.1 object, given the ASN.1 type and Java value for it.

Throws: InstantiationException
if the internal factory couldn't create an instance of requested type
o register 
 protected static void register(ASN type,
                                Class cl)
Registers a new ASN.1 type. Called by the OBJECT classes' static initializers to register those ASN.1 types that the OBJECT classes know of.

o getName 
 public String getName()
Returns the name of this ASN.1 type.

o getTag 
 public int getTag()
Returns the tag of this ASN.1 type.

o equals 
 public boolean equals(Object o)
Compares two ASN.1 types by tag

Overrides:
equals in class Object
o hashCode 
 public int hashCode()
Returns hashcode for this object

Overrides:
hashCode in class Object
o clone

Overrides:
clone in class Object
o createSequenceOf 
 public static ASN1Object createSequenceOf(ASN1Type array[])
Creates a SequenceOf ASN.1 object.

Parameters:
array - the array of objects with the objects
Returns:
the created ASN1Object
o createSetOf 
 public static ASN1Object createSetOf(ASN1Type array[])
Creates a SetOf ASN.1 object.

Parameters:
array - the array of objects with the objects
Returns:
the created ASN1Object
