AbstractThe specific PKI type that extends this base class
Gets the PEM header name for this object type. Converts the class name to uppercase for use in PEM encoding.
Gets the PKI type name for this object (typically the class name). Used for PEM headers and debugging output.
Compares this PKI object with another for equality. Two objects are considered equal if their DER encodings are identical.
The other PKI object to compare with
true if the objects are equal, false otherwise
Parses this object as a different PKI type. Useful for converting between related PKI structures.
The target type to parse as
The target type constructor with parsing capabilities
A new instance of the target type
AbstracttoConverts this PKI object to its ASN.1 representation.
The ASN.1 representation of this object
Converts this PKI object to DER (Distinguished Encoding Rules) format.
The DER-encoded bytes of this object
Returns a human-readable string representation of this object. By default, returns the same as toString(), but subclasses can override for more user-friendly output.
A human-readable string representation
Converts this PKI object to PEM (Privacy-Enhanced Mail) format.
A PEM-encoded string with appropriate headers
Returns a string representation of this PKI object. Includes the type name and ASN.1 structure.
A string representation for debugging
Base class for all PKI objects in the library.
Provides common functionality for ASN.1 encoding/decoding, PEM formatting, DER serialization, and object comparison. All PKI structures extend this class to ensure consistent behavior across the library.
