class OpenSSL::ASN1::Constructive

The parent class for all constructed encodings. The value attribute of a Constructive is always an Array. Attributes are the same as for ASN1Data, with the addition of tagging.

SET and SEQUENCE¶ ↑

Most constructed encodings come in the form of a SET or a SEQUENCE. These encodings are represented by one of the two sub-classes of Constructive:

OpenSSL::ASN1::Set
OpenSSL::ASN1::Sequence

Please note that tagged sequences and sets are still parsed as instances of ASN1Data. Find further details on tagged values there.

Example - constructing a SEQUENCE¶ ↑

int = OpenSSL::ASN1::Integer.new(1)
str = OpenSSL::ASN1::PrintableString.new('abc')
sequence = OpenSSL::ASN1::Sequence.new( [ int, str ] )

Example - constructing a SET¶ ↑

int = OpenSSL::ASN1::Integer.new(1)
str = OpenSSL::ASN1::PrintableString.new('abc')
set = OpenSSL::ASN1::Set.new( [ int, str ] )

Public Instance Methods

each { |asn1| block } → asn1_ary

Source

# File ext/openssl/lib/openssl/asn1.rb, line 148
def each(&blk)
  @value.each(&blk)

  self
end

Calls the given block once for each element in self, passing that element as parameter asn1. If no block is given, an enumerator is returned instead.

Example¶ ↑

asn1_ary.each do |asn1|
  puts asn1
end
