  • Method Details

    • encode

      public byte[] encode()
      Description copied from interface: DEREncoder
      Encode this object into its DER type.
      Specified by:
      encode in interface DEREncoder
      Returns:
      DER encoded object

    • decode

      public static String decode(DERBuffer encoded)
      Converts bytes in the buffer to a string by reading from the current position to the limit, which assumes the bytes of the string are in big-endian order.
      Parameters:
      encoded - buffer containing DER-encoded data where the buffer is positioned at the start of string bytes and the limit is set beyond the last byte of string data.
      Returns:
      decoded bytes as a string

    • toBytes

      public static byte[] toBytes(String s)
      Converts the supplied string to a byte array using the UTF-8 encoding.
      Parameters:
      s - to convert
      Returns:
      byte array
