Class ASN1InputStream

    java.lang.Object
      java.io.InputStream
          java.io.FilterInputStream
              org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1InputStream

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Closeable, DERTags

    public class ASN1InputStream

extends java.io.FilterInputStream
implements DERTags

a general purpose ASN.1 decoder - note: this class differs from the others in that it returns null after it has read the last object in the stream. If an ASN.1 NULL is encountered a DER/BER Null object is returned.

Constructor Detail

### ASN1InputStream

    public ASN1InputStream(java.io.InputStream is)

### ASN1InputStream

    public ASN1InputStream(byte[] input)

  Create an ASN1InputStream based on the input byte array. The length of DER objects in the stream is automatically limited to the length of the input array.

  Parameters:
    `input` - array containing ASN.1 encoded data.

### ASN1InputStream

    public ASN1InputStream(byte[] input,
                           boolean lazyEvaluate)

  Create an ASN1InputStream based on the input byte array. The length of DER objects in the stream is automatically limited to the length of the input array.

  Parameters:
    `input` - array containing ASN.1 encoded data.
    `lazyEvaluate` - true if parsing inside constructed objects can be delayed.

### ASN1InputStream

    public ASN1InputStream(java.io.InputStream input,
                           int limit)

  Create an ASN1InputStream where no DER object will be longer than limit.

  Parameters:
    `input` - stream containing ASN.1 encoded data.
    `limit` - maximum size of a DER encoded object.

### ASN1InputStream

    public ASN1InputStream(java.io.InputStream input,
                           int limit,
                           boolean lazyEvaluate)

  Create an ASN1InputStream where no DER object will be longer than limit, and constructed objects such as sequences will be parsed lazily.

  Parameters:
    `input` - stream containing ASN.1 encoded data.
    `limit` - maximum size of a DER encoded object.
    `lazyEvaluate` - true if parsing inside constructed objects can be delayed.

Method Detail

### readLength

    protected int readLength()
                      throws java.io.IOException

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`

### readFully

    protected void readFully(byte[] bytes)
                      throws java.io.IOException

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`

### buildObject

    protected DERObject buildObject(int tag,
                                    int tagNo,
                                    int length)
                             throws java.io.IOException

  build an object given its tag and the number of bytes to construct it from.

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`

### readObject

    public DERObject readObject()
                         throws java.io.IOException

  Throws:
    `java.io.IOException`
