Class AttributeTypeAndValue

java.lang.Object
oracle.security.crypto.cert.AttributeTypeAndValue

public class AttributeTypeAndValue

extends java.lang.Object

An attribute type OID and a value defined by the OID, used in PKIX and PKCS protocols. Similar to Attribute, but an AttributeTypeAndValue must have only a single value.

The ASN.1 syntax is:

        AttributeTypeAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
                type AttributeType OBJECT IDENTIFIER,
                value AttributeValue ANY DEFINED BY type
        }
        

Constructor Summary

AttributeTypeAndValue()
Creates a new, empty attribute type and value.

AttributeTypeAndValue(ASN1ObjectID type, ASN1Object value)

AttributeTypeAndValue(java.io.InputStream is)

Method Summary

ASN1ObjectID	getType() Returns the type.
ASN1Object	getValue() Returns the value.
void	input(java.io.InputStream is) Defines this attribute type-value pair by reading its encoding from the given input stream.
int	length()
void	output(java.io.OutputStream os)
void	setValue(ASN1Object value) Sets the value.
