Throws:

java.io.IOException - Any exception thrown by the Asn1PerOutputStream.

Asn1Exception - Thrown, if operation is failed.

encode

public void encode(Asn1PerOutputStream out,
                   Asn1CharSet charSet,
                   long lower,
                   long upper)
            throws Asn1Exception,
                   java.io.IOException

This overloaded version of the encode method encodes an ASN.1 UniversalString value in accordance with the packed encoding rules (PER). This version of the method assumes both a size constraint and permitted alphabet constraint are present. The value to encode is stored in the public value member variable.

Parameters:

out - PER Output Stream object

charSet - Object representing the permitted alphabet constraint character set

lower - Effective size constraint lower bound

upper - Effective size constraint upper bound

Throws:

java.io.IOException - Any exception thrown by the Asn1PerOutputStream.

Asn1Exception - Thrown, if operation is failed.

encode

protected void encode(Asn1PerOutputStream out,
                      int nchars,
                      int offset,
                      int abpc,
                      int ubpc,
                      Asn1CharSet charSet)
               throws Asn1Exception,
                      java.io.IOException

This method encodes the contents of a UniversalString type. This version assumes a permitted alphabet constraint was specified.

Parameters:

out - PER Output Stream object

nchars - Number of characters from string to encode

offset - Offset to first char in string to encode

abpc - Number of bits per character (aligned)

ubpc - Number of bits per character (unaligned)

charSet - Object representing permitted alphabet constraint character set (optional)

Throws:

java.io.IOException - Any exception thrown by the Asn1PerOutputStream.

Asn1Exception - Thrown, if operation is failed.

encode

protected void encode(Asn1PerOutputStream out,
                      int abpc,
                      int ubpc,
                      Asn1CharSet charSet)
               throws Asn1Exception,
                      java.io.IOException

This method encodes an ASN.1 UniversalString value in accordance with the packed encoding rules (PER). This version of the method assumes no permitted alphabet or size constraints. The value to encode is stored in the public value member variable.

Parameters:

out - PER Output Stream object

abpc - Number of bits per character (aligned)

ubpc - Number of bits per character (unaligned)

charSet - Object representing the permitted alphabet constraint character set (optional)

Throws:

java.io.IOException - Any exception thrown by the Asn1PerOutputStream.

Asn1Exception - Thrown, if operation is failed.

encode

protected void encode(Asn1PerOutputStream out,
                      int abpc,
                      int ubpc,
                      Asn1CharSet charSet,
                      long lower,
                      long upper)
               throws Asn1Exception,
                      java.io.IOException

This overloaded version of the encode method encodes an ASN.1 UniversalString value in accordance with the packed encoding rules (PER). This version of the method assumes a size constraint is present but no permitted alphabet constraint. The value to encode is stored in the public value member variable.

Parameters:

out - PER Output Stream object

abpc - Number of bits per character (aligned)

ubpc - Number of bits per character (unaligned)

charSet - Object representing the permitted alphabet constraint character set (optional)

lower - Effective size constraint lower bound

upper - Effective size constraint upper bound

Throws:

java.io.IOException - Any exception thrown by the Asn1PerOutputStream.

Asn1Exception - Thrown, if operation is failed.

validate

public boolean validate(Asn1CharSet charSet)

This method will attempt to validate a string against its internal character set.

Returns:

True or False.
