public final class ASN1Enumerated
extends ASN1Element

This class provides an ASN.1 enumerated element. Enumerated elements are very similar to integer elements, and the only real difference between them is that the individual values of an enumerated element have a symbolic significance (i.e., each value is associated with a particular meaning), although this does not impact its encoding other than through the use of a different default BER type.

ASN1Enumerated

public ASN1Enumerated(byte type,
                      int intValue)
Creates a new ASN.1 enumerated element with the specified BER type and the provided int value.

Parameters:
type - The BER type to use for this element.
intValue - The int value to use for this element.
Method Detail

intValue

public int intValue()
Retrieves the int value for this element.

Returns:
The int value for this element.

decodeAsEnumerated

public static ASN1Enumerated decodeAsEnumerated(byte[] elementBytes)
                                         throws ASN1Exception
Decodes the contents of the provided byte array as an enumerated element.

Parameters:
elementBytes - The byte array to decode as an ASN.1 enumerated element.
Returns:
The decoded ASN.1 enumerated element.
Throws:
ASN1Exception - If the provided array cannot be decoded as an enumerated element.

decodeAsEnumerated

public static ASN1Enumerated decodeAsEnumerated(ASN1Element element)
                                         throws ASN1Exception
Decodes the provided ASN.1 element as an enumerated element.

Parameters:
element - The ASN.1 element to be decoded.
Returns:
The decoded ASN.1 enumerated element.
Throws:
ASN1Exception - If the provided element cannot be decoded as an enumerated element.

toString

public void toString(java.lang.StringBuilder buffer)
Appends a string representation of this ASN.1 element to the provided buffer.

Overrides:
toString in class ASN1Element
Parameters:
buffer - The buffer to which to append the information.
