Constructor Detail

ASN1Integer

public ASN1Integer(long value)

Construct an INTEGER from the passed in long value.

Parameters:

value - the long representing the value desired.

ASN1Integer

public ASN1Integer(java.math.BigInteger value)

Construct an INTEGER from the passed in BigInteger value.

Parameters:

value - the BigInteger representing the value desired.

ASN1Integer

public ASN1Integer(byte[] bytes)

Construct an INTEGER from the passed in byte array.

NB: Strict Validation applied by default.

It has turned out that there are still a few applications that struggle with the ASN.1 BER encoding rules for an INTEGER as described in:

Parameters:

bytes - the byte array representing a 2's complement encoding of a BigInteger.

Method Detail

getInstance

public static ASN1Integer getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

Return an integer from the passed in object.

Parameters:

obj - an ASN1Integer or an object that can be converted into one.

Returns:

an ASN1Integer instance.

Throws:

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

getInstance

public static ASN1Integer getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                      boolean explicit)

Return an Integer 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:

an ASN1Integer instance.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

getValue

public java.math.BigInteger getValue()

getPositiveValue

public java.math.BigInteger getPositiveValue()

in some cases positive values get crammed into a space, that's not quite big enough...

Returns:

the BigInteger that results from treating this ASN.1 INTEGER as unsigned.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Specified by:

hashCode in class ASN1Primitive

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
