Constructor Detail

X509Name

public X509Name(ASN1Sequence seq)

Constructor from ASN1Sequence the principal will be a list of constructed sets, each containing an (OID, String) pair.

X509Name

public X509Name(Hashtable attributes)

constructor from a table of attributes.

it's is assumed the table contains OID/String pairs, and the contents of the table are copied into an internal table as part of the construction process.

Note: if the name you are trying to generate should be following a specific ordering, you should use the constructor with the ordering specified below.

X509Name

public X509Name(Vector ordering,
                Hashtable attributes)

Constructor from a table of attributes with ordering.

it's is assumed the table contains OID/String pairs, and the contents of the table are copied into an internal table as part of the construction process. The ordering vector should contain the OIDs in the order they are meant to be encoded or printed in toString.

X509Name

public X509Name(Vector ordering,
                Hashtable attributes,
                X509DefaultEntryConverter converter)

Constructor from a table of attributes with ordering.

it's is assumed the table contains OID/String pairs, and the contents of the table are copied into an internal table as part of the construction process. The ordering vector should contain the OIDs in the order they are meant to be encoded or printed in toString.

The passed in converter will be used to convert the strings into their ASN.1 counterparts.

X509Name

public X509Name(Vector oids,
                Vector values)

Takes two vectors one of the oids and the other of the values.

X509Name

public X509Name(Vector oids,
                Vector values,
                X509NameEntryConverter converter)

Takes two vectors one of the oids and the other of the values.

The passed in converter will be used to convert the strings into their ASN.1 counterparts.

X509Name

public X509Name(String dirName)

X509Name

public X509Name(boolean reverse,
                String dirName)

Takes an X509 dir name as a string of the format "C=AU, ST=Victoria", or some such, converting it into an ordered set of name attributes. If reverse is true, create the encoded version of the sequence starting from the last element in the string.

X509Name

                String dirName,
                X509NameEntryConverter converter)

Takes an X509 dir name as a string of the format "C=AU, ST=Victoria", or some such, converting it into an ordered set of name attributes with each string value being converted to its associated ASN.1 type using the passed in converter. If reverse is true the ASN.1 sequence representing the DN will be built by starting at the end of the string, rather than the start.

X509Name

public X509Name(boolean reverse,
                Hashtable lookUp,
                String dirName)

Takes an X509 dir name as a string of the format "C=AU, ST=Victoria", or some such, converting it into an ordered set of name attributes. lookUp should provide a table of lookups, indexed by lowercase only strings and yielding a DERObjectIdentifier, other than that OID. and numeric oids will be processed automatically.
If reverse is true, create the encoded version of the sequence starting from the last element in the string.

Parameters:

reverse - true if we should start scanning from the end (RFC 2553).

lookUp - table of names and their oids.

dirName - the X.500 string to be parsed.

X509Name

public X509Name(boolean reverse,
                Hashtable lookUp,

The passed in converter is used to convert the string values to the right of each equals sign to their ASN.1 counterparts.

Parameters:

reverse - true if we should start scanning from the end, false otherwise.

lookUp - table of names and oids.

dirName - the string dirName

converter - the converter to convert string values into their ASN.1 equivalents
