Method Details

convert

public static DERBitString convert(ASN1BitString bitString)

getInstance

public static DERBitString getInstance(Object obj)

Deprecated.

Use ASN1BitString.getInstance(Object) and convert(ASN1BitString) instead.

return a Bit String from the passed in object

Parameters:

obj - a DERBitString or an object that can be converted into one.

Returns:

a DERBitString instance, or null.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.

getInstance

public static DERBitString getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
 boolean explicit)

Deprecated.

Use ASN1BitString.getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject, boolean) and convert(ASN1BitString) instead.

return a Bit String from a tagged object.

Parameters:

obj - the tagged object holding the object we want

explicit - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged false otherwise.

Returns:

a DERBitString instance, or null.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.
