class OpenSSL::ASN1::Primitive
The parent class for all primitive encodings. Attributes are the same as for ASN1Data, with the addition of tagging. Primitive values can never be encoded with indefinite length form, thus it is not possible to set the indefinite_length attribute for Primitive and its sub-classes.
Primitive sub-classes and their mapping to Ruby classes¶ ↑
-
OpenSSL::ASN1::EndOfContent<=> value is alwaysnil -
OpenSSL::ASN1::Boolean<=> value istrueorfalse -
OpenSSL::ASN1::Integer<=> value is anOpenSSL::BN -
OpenSSL::ASN1::BitString<=> value is aString -
OpenSSL::ASN1::OctetString <=> value is a
String -
OpenSSL::ASN1::Null <=> value is always
nil -
OpenSSL::ASN1::Object<=> value is aString -
OpenSSL::ASN1::Enumerated<=> value is anOpenSSL::BN -
OpenSSL::ASN1::UTF8String <=> value is a

OpenSSL::ASN1::BitString¶ ↑
Additional attributes¶ ↑
unused_bits: if the underlying BIT STRING’s length is a multiple of 8 then unused_bits is 0. Otherwise unused_bits indicates the number of bits that are to be ignored in the final octet of the BitString’s value.
OpenSSL::ASN1::ObjectId¶ ↑
NOTE: While OpenSSL::ASN1::ObjectId.new will allocate a new ObjectId, it is not typically allocated this way, but rather that are received from parsed ASN1 encodings.
Additional attributes¶ ↑
-
sn: the short name as defined in <openssl/objects.h>.
-
ln: the long name as defined in <openssl/objects.h>.
-
oid: the object identifier as a
String, e.g. “1.2.3.4.5” -
short_name: alias for sn.
-
long_name: alias for ln.
Examples¶ ↑
With the Exception of OpenSSL::ASN1::EndOfContent, each Primitive class constructor takes at least one parameter, the value.
Creating EndOfContent¶ ↑
eoc = OpenSSL::ASN1::EndOfContent.new
Creating any other Primitive¶ ↑
prim = <class>.new(value) # <class> being one of the sub-classes except EndOfContent prim_zero_tagged_implicit = <class>.new(value, 0, :IMPLICIT) prim_zero_tagged_explicit = <class>.new(value, 0, :EXPLICIT)
