              int[] bytes_read)
       throws java.io.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:

java.io.IOException - failed to construct

Method Detail

write

public void write(java.io.OutputStream stream)
           throws java.io.IOException

Sends the BER encoding directly to an output stream.

Overrides:

write in class BERElement

Parameters:

stream - output stream

getType

public int getType()

Gets the element type.

Overrides:

getType in class BERElement

Parameters:

element - type

public java.lang.String toString()

Gets the string representation.

Overrides:
