java.lang.Object | |
↳ | java.security.PKCS12Attribute |
An attribute associated with a PKCS12 keystore entry. The attribute name is an ASN.1 Object Identifier and the attribute value is a set of ASN.1 types.

PKCS12Attribute
public PKCS12Attribute (byte[] encoded)
Constructs a PKCS12 attribute from its ASN.1 DER encoding. The DER encoding is specified by the following ASN.1 definition:
Attribute ::= SEQUENCE { type AttributeType, values SET OF AttributeValue } AttributeType ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER AttributeValue ::= ANY defined by type
Parameters | |

encoded |
byte : the attribute's ASN.1 DER encoding. It is cloned
to prevent subsequent modificaion. |

PKCS12Attribute
public PKCS12Attribute (String name, String value)
Constructs a PKCS12 attribute from its name and value.
The name is an ASN.1 Object Identifier represented as a list of
dot-separated integers.
A string value is represented as the string itself.
A binary value is represented as a string of colon-separated
pairs of hexadecimal digits.
Multi-valued attributes are represented as a comma-separated
list of values, enclosed in square brackets. See
Arrays.toString(java.lang.Object[])
.
A string value will be DER-encoded as an ASN.1 UTF8String and a binary value will be DER-encoded as an ASN.1 Octet String.
Parameters | |
---|---|
name |
String : the attribute's identifier |
value |
String : the attribute's value |
Throws | |
---|---|
NullPointerException |
if name or value
is null |
IllegalArgumentException |
if name or
value is incorrectly formatted |
Public methods
equals
public boolean equals (Object obj)
Compares this PKCS12Attribute
and a specified object for
equality.
Parameters | |
---|---|
obj |
Object : the comparison object |
Returns | |
---|---|
boolean |
true if obj is a PKCS12Attribute and
their DER encodings are equal. |
getEncoded
public byte[] getEncoded ()
Returns the attribute's ASN.1 DER encoding.
Returns | |
---|---|
byte[] |
a clone of the attribute's DER encoding |
getName
public String getName ()
Returns the attribute's ASN.1 Object Identifier represented as a list of dot-separated integers.
Returns | |
---|---|
String |
the attribute's identifier |
getValue
public String getValue ()
Returns the attribute's ASN.1 DER-encoded value as a string.
An ASN.1 DER-encoded value is returned in one of the following
String
formats:
- the DER encoding of a basic ASN.1 type that has a natural string representation is returned as the string itself. Such types are currently limited to BOOLEAN, INTEGER, OBJECT IDENTIFIER, UTCTime, GeneralizedTime and the following six ASN.1 string types: UTF8String, PrintableString, T61String, IA5String, BMPString and GeneralString.
- the DER encoding of any other ASN.1 type is not decoded but returned as a binary string of colon-separated pairs of hexadecimal digits.
Arrays.toString(java.lang.Object[])
.
Returns | |
---|---|
String |
the attribute value's string encoding |
hashCode
public int hashCode ()
Returns the hashcode for this PKCS12Attribute
.
The hash code is computed from its DER encoding.
Returns | |
---|---|
int |
the hash code |
toString
public String toString ()
Returns a string representation of this PKCS12Attribute
.
Returns | |
---|---|
String |
a name/value pair separated by an 'equals' symbol |
