Package com.unboundid.asn1

This package contains a number of classes for interacting with ASN.1 BER elements.

See:
          Description

Class Summary
ASN1Boolean This class provides an ASN.1 Boolean element, whose value is a single byte and represents either "TRUE" or "FALSE".
ASN1Buffer This class provides a mechanism for writing one or more ASN.1 elements into a byte string buffer.
ASN1BufferSequence This class provides a data structure which is used in the course of writing an ASN.1 sequence to an ASN.1 buffer.
ASN1BufferSet This class provides a data structure which is used in the course of writing an ASN.1 set to an ASN.1 buffer.
ASN1Element This class defines a generic ASN.1 BER element, which has a type and value.
ASN1Enumerated This class provides an ASN.1 enumerated element.
ASN1Integer This class provides an ASN.1 integer element, whose value may be represented as an integer with up to a 32-bit representation.
ASN1Long This class provides an ASN.1 long element.
ASN1Null This class provides an ASN.1 null element, which does not hold a value.
ASN1OctetString This class provides an ASN.1 octet string element, whose value is simply comprised of zero or more bytes.
ASN1Sequence This class provides an ASN.1 sequence element, which is used to hold an ordered set of zero or more other elements (potentially including additional "envelope" element types like other sequences and/or sets).
ASN1Set This class provides an ASN.1 set element, which is used to hold a set of zero or more other elements (potentially including additional "envelope" element types like other sequences and/or sets) in which the order of those elements should not be considered significant.
ASN1StreamReader This class provides a mechanism for ASN.1 elements (including sequences and sets) from an input stream in a manner that allows the data to be decoded on the fly without constructing ASN1Element objects if they are not needed.
ASN1StreamReaderSequence This class provides a data structure which is used in the course of reading an ASN.1 sequence from an ASN.1 stream reader.
ASN1StreamReaderSet This class provides a data structure which is used in the course of reading an ASN.1 set from an ASN.1 stream reader.
ASN1Writer This class provides an efficient mechanism for writing ASN.1 elements to output streams.
 

Exception Summary
ASN1Exception This class defines an exception that can be thrown if a problem occurs while interacting with ASN.1 BER elements.
 

Package com.unboundid.asn1 Description

This package contains a number of classes for interacting with ASN.1 BER elements. ASN.1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) provides a framework for representing typed data in a binary form, according to a set of encoding rules. This implementation uses the Basic Encoding Rules (BER), which is the mechanism used to represent LDAP messages. It does not provide all standard types of ASN.1 elements, but includes those needed for LDAP processing, including Boolean, enumerated, integer, null, octet string, sequence, and set elements, as well as support for generic element types.
