DERT61UTF8String (Bouncy Castle Library 1.60 API Specification)

java.lang.Object
- org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Object
- - org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Primitive
  - - org.bouncycastle.asn1.DERT61UTF8String

All Implemented Interfaces:

ASN1Encodable, ASN1String, Encodable
```
public class DERT61UTF8String
extends ASN1Primitive
implements ASN1String
```
Deprecated.
don't use this class, introduced in error, it will be removed.

DER T61String (also the teletex string) - a "modern" encapsulation that uses UTF-8. If at all possible, avoid this one! It's only for emergencies. Use UTF8String instead.

```
public static DERT61UTF8String getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    return a T61 string from the passed in object. UTF-8 Encoding is assumed in this case.
    
    Parameters:
    
    obj - a DERT61UTF8String or an object that can be converted into one.
    
    Returns:
    
    a DERT61UTF8String instance, or null
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the object cannot be converted.
  - getInstance
```
public static DERT61UTF8String getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                           boolean explicit)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    return an T61 String from a tagged object. UTF-8 encoding is assumed in this case.
    
    Parameters:
    
    obj - the tagged object holding the object we want
    
    explicit - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged false otherwise.
    
    Returns:
    
    a DERT61UTF8String instance, or null
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the tagged object cannot be converted.
  - getString
```
public java.lang.String getString()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Decode the encoded string and return it, UTF8 assumed.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getString in interface ASN1String
    
    Returns:
    
    the decoded String
  - toString
```
public java.lang.String toString()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class java.lang.Object
  - getOctets
```
public byte[] getOctets()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Return the encoded string as a byte array.
    
    Returns:
    
    the actual bytes making up the encoded body of the T61 string.
  - hashCode
```
public int hashCode()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Specified by:
    
    hashCode in class ASN1Primitive
