org.forgerock.opendj.io.Asn1Reader
All Implemented Interfaces:
Closeable, AutoCloseable
public final class Asn1Reader extends Object implements Closeable
An interface for decoding ASN.1 elements from a data source.

Methods for creating Asn1Readers are provided in the Asn1 class.

  • Method Details

    • close

      public void close() throws IOException
      Reads the end of the current ASN.1 sequence, set or explicit tag, or closes the underlying input if the reader is not reading a sequence. Any remaining data in the current sequence will be skipped.
      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable
      Throws:
      IOException - If an error occurs while closing.

    • elementAvailable

      public boolean elementAvailable() throws IOException
      Indicates whether the next element can be read without blocking.
      Returns:
      true if a complete element is available or false otherwise.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - If the available data was not valid ASN.1.
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • hasNextElement

      public boolean hasNextElement() throws IOException
      Indicates whether the current stream, sequence, or set contains another element. Note that this method may return true even if a previous call to elementAvailable() returned false, indicating that the current set or sequence contains another element but an attempt to read that element may block. This method will block if there is not enough data available to make the determination (typically only the next element's type is required).
      Returns:
      true if the current stream, sequence, or set contains another element, or false if the end of the stream, sequence, or set has been reached.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - If the available data was not valid ASN.1.
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • peekLength

      public int peekLength() throws IOException
      Returns the length of the next element without actually reading it.
      Returns:
      The length of the next element, zero or positive.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - If EOF was reached when reading the length or if the length bytes are invalid ASN.1.
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • peekType

      public byte peekType() throws IOException
      Returns the single byte type of the next element without actually reading it. If the next element has a multi-byte type (number greater than 30) then this method will only return the first byte of the encoded type which contains the class and form bits. In other words, use this method when the ASN.1 schema indicates that the expected type is between 0 and 30 inclusive, otherwise use peekTypeMultiByte() for the very rare cases involving types greater than 30.
      Returns:
      The single byte type of the next element.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - If EOF was reached when reading the type, or the multi-byte type contained more than 8 bytes, or if the type was invalid ASN.1.
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.

    • peekTypeMultiByte

      public long peekTypeMultiByte() throws IOException
      Returns the possibly multi-byte type of the next element without actually reading it. The returned type is encoded as a long as described in Asn1Tag.numberMultiByte(long). This implementation only supports multi-byte types containing up to 8 bytes. Bigger types will result in a DecodeException.
      Returns:
      The possibly multi-byte type of the next element.
      Throws:
      DecodeException - If EOF was reached when reading the type, or the multi-byte type contained more than 8 bytes, or if the type was invalid ASN.1.
      IOException - If an unexpected IO error occurred.
