X500NameStyle

org.bouncycastle.asn1.x500.X500NameStyle
Known Indirect Subclasses

Class Overview

It turns out that the number of standard ways the fields in a DN should be encoded into their ASN.1 counterparts is rapidly approaching the number of machines on the internet. By default the X500Name class will produce UTF8Strings in line with the current recommendations (RFC 3280).
