Class BERAny

java.lang.Object

netscape.ldap.ber.stream.BERElement

netscape.ldap.ber.stream.BERAny

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class BERAny
extends BERElement

This class is for the "any" object that is unknown to the BER package but conforms to BER rules.

Encoding Rule:
  The encoding is that of the particular implementation.

Constructor Details

BERAny

public BERAny(BERElement value)

Constructs an "any" element.

Parameters:

value - BERElement value

BERAny

public BERAny(BERTagDecoder decoder,
 InputStream stream,
 int[] bytes_read)
       throws IOException

Constructs an "any" element from an input stream. Note that with the current decoding architecture "any" types will not be decoded as any's but rather as the particular implementation. The following method will never be called.

Parameters:

stream - input stream

bytes_read - array of 1 int; value incremented by number of bytes read from stream

Throws:

IOException - failed to construct

Method Details

write

public void write(OutputStream stream)
           throws IOException

Sends the BER encoding directly to an output stream.

Specified by:

write in class BERElement

Parameters:

stream - output stream

Throws:

IOException

getType

public int getType()

Gets the element type.

Specified by:

getType in class BERElement

Returns:

element type.

toString

public String toString()

Gets the string representation.

Specified by:

toString in class BERElement

Returns:

string representation of tag.
