Target (Bouncy Castle Library 1.52 API Specification)

org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509

## Class Target

- java.lang.Object
- - org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1Object
  - - org.bouncycastle.asn1.x509.Target

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    ASN1Choice, ASN1Encodable, Encodable

      public class Target
      extends ASN1Object
      implements ASN1Choice

  Target structure used in target information extension for attribute certificates from RFC 3281.

           Target  ::= CHOICE {
             targetName          [0] GeneralName,
             targetGroup         [1] GeneralName,
             targetCert          [2] TargetCert
           }

  The targetCert field is currently not supported and must not be used according to RFC 3281.

    - #### Target

          public Target(int type,
                GeneralName name)

      Constructor from given details.

      Exactly one of the parameters must be not `null`.

      Parameters:
        `type` - the choice type to apply to the name.
        `name` - the general name.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if type is invalid.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getInstance

          public static Target getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

      Creates an instance of a Target from the given object.

      `obj` can be a Target or a `ASN1TaggedObject`

      Parameters:
        `obj` - The object.
      Returns:
        A Target instance.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the given object cannot be interpreted as Target.

    - #### getTargetGroup

          public GeneralName getTargetGroup()

      Returns:
        Returns the targetGroup.

    - #### getTargetName

          public GeneralName getTargetName()

      Returns:
        Returns the targetName.

    - #### toASN1Primitive

          public ASN1Primitive toASN1Primitive()

      Produce an object suitable for an ASN1OutputStream. Returns:

               Target  ::= CHOICE {
                 targetName          [0] GeneralName,
                 targetGroup         [1] GeneralName,
                 targetCert          [2] TargetCert
               }

      Specified by:
        `toASN1Primitive` in interface `ASN1Encodable`
      Specified by:
        `toASN1Primitive` in class `ASN1Object`
      Returns:
        a ASN1Primitive
