      • BasicControl

        public BasicControl(String id)
        Constructs a non-critical control.
        Parameters:
        id - The control's object identifier string.

      • BasicControl

        public BasicControl(String id,
                    boolean criticality,
                    byte[] value)
        Constructs a control using the supplied arguments.
        Parameters:
        id - The control's object identifier string.
        criticality - The control's criticality.
        value - The control's ASN.1 BER encoded value. It is not cloned - any changes to value will affect the contents of the control. It may be null.

    • Method Detail

      • getID

        public String getID()
        Retrieves the control's object identifier string.
        Specified by:
        getID in interface  Control
        Returns:
        The non-null object identifier string.

      • isCritical

        public boolean isCritical()
        Determines the control's criticality.
        Specified by:
        isCritical in interface  Control
        Returns:
        true if the control is critical; false otherwise.

      • getEncodedValue

        public byte[] getEncodedValue()
        Retrieves the control's ASN.1 BER encoded value. The result includes the BER tag and length for the control's value but does not include the control's object identifier and criticality setting.
        Specified by:
        getEncodedValue in interface  Control
        Returns:
        A possibly null byte array representing the control's ASN.1 BER encoded value. It is not cloned - any changes to the returned value will affect the contents of the control.
