All Implemented Interfaces:
ASN1Encodable, ASN1String, Encodable
Direct Known Subclasses:
DERIA5String

public abstract class ASN1IA5String extends ASN1Primitive implements ASN1String
ASN.1 IA5String object - this is a ISO 646 (ASCII) string encoding code points 0 to 127.

Explicit character set escape sequences are not allowed.

      public static ASN1IA5String getInstance(Object obj)
      Return an IA5 string from the passed in object
      Parameters:
      obj - an ASN1IA5String or an object that can be converted into one.
      Returns:
      a ASN1IA5String instance, or null.
      Throws:
