Detailed Description

This class is a holder for things which are to be contained in an encoder or decoder. Since we have multiple base classes for encoders/decoders (Asn1MessageBuffer and Asn1OutputStream), this class provides a single container for all of those things which would otherwise be contained in the various base classes.

This class also provides a location for some convenience methods related to the contained objects (e.g. getCurrentElement).

Thread-safety: a given instance of this class should be accessed by a single thread.

GetCurrentElement()

String GetCurrentElement

Return the name of the current element. This is only useful if you have called enableElementTracking at the start of encoding/decoding. The name returned will be in the form element1.element2..., If you have not enabled element tracking, an exception will be thrown.
