  • Method Details

    • getBERLength

      int getBERLength()
      Returns the length of this BERSerializable object in bytes when encoded according to the Basic Encoding Rules (BER).
      Returns:
      the BER encoded length of this variable.

    • getBERPayloadLength

      int getBERPayloadLength()
      Returns the length of the payload of this BERSerializable object in bytes when encoded according to the Basic Encoding Rules (BER).
      Returns:
      the BER encoded length of this variable.

    • decodeBER

      void decodeBER(BERInputStream inputStream) throws IOException
      Decodes a Variable from an InputStream.
      Parameters:
      inputStream - an InputStream containing a BER encoded byte stream.
      Throws:
      IOException - if the stream could not be decoded by using BER rules.

    • encodeBER

      void encodeBER(OutputStream outputStream) throws IOException
      Encodes a Variable to an OutputStream.
      Parameters:
      outputStream - an OutputStream.
      Throws:
      IOException - if an error occurs while writing to the stream.
