Method Detail

componentAt

public X500RDN componentAt(int i)

input

public void input(java.io.InputStream is)
           throws java.io.IOException

Initializes this X.500 name by reading its DER-encoding from the specified input stream.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

output

public void output(java.io.OutputStream os)
            throws java.io.IOException

Output to the specified output stream. The order of attributes is the same as the order in which they were defined (attributes with null values will be omitted).

Note: If the old API methods are used to define the attributes the the order of output is as follows: C, ST, L, O, OU, CN, EMAIL.

Throws:

java.io.IOException

length

public int length()

getName

public java.lang.String getName()

Specified by:

getName in interface java.security.Principal

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of this X500Name. The output of this method is suitable for use in the constructor X500Name(InputStream). The order of entries is the reverse of the order produced by the output method.

Specified by:

toString in interface java.security.Principal

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Compares this X.500 name to the specified object. Returns true if and only if the argument is not null, and represents the same X.500 name. For the purposes of this comparison operation, two X.500 names are considered the same if and only if all the attributes recognized by this implementation have the same value.

Specified by:

equals in interface java.security.Principal

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()
