* ISIS-MTT PROFILE: The relatively complex structure of AdmissionSyntax * supports the following concepts and requirements: * * External institutions (e.g. professional associations, chambers, unions, * administrative bodies, companies, etc.), which are responsible for granting * and verifying professional admissions, are indicated by means of the data * field admissionAuthority. An admission authority is indicated by a * GeneralName object. Here an X.501 directory name (distinguished name) can be * indicated in the field directoryName, a URL address can be indicated in the * field uniformResourceIdentifier, and an object identifier can be indicated in * the field registeredId. * The names of authorities which are responsible for the administration of * title registers are indicated in the data field namingAuthority. The name of * the authority can be identified by an object identifier in the field * namingAuthorityId, by means of a text string in the field * namingAuthorityText, by means of a URL address in the field * namingAuthorityUrl, or by a combination of them. For example, the text string * can contain the name of the authority, the country and the name of the title * register. The URL-option refers to a web page which contains lists with * �officially� registered professions (text and possibly OID) as well as * further information on these professions. Object identifiers for the * component namingAuthorityId are grouped under the OID-branch * id-isis-at-namingAuthorities and must be applied for. * See * https://www.teletrust.de/anwend.asp?Id=30200&Sprache=E_&HomePG=0 for * an application form and https://www.teletrust.de/links.asp?id=30220,11 * for an overview of registered naming authorities. * By means of the data type ProfessionInfo certain professions, * specializations, disciplines, fields of activity, etc. are identified. A * profession is represented by one or more text strings, resp. profession OIDs * in the fields professionItems and professionOIDs and by a registration number * in the field registrationNumber. An indication in text form must always be * present, whereas the other indications are optional. The component * addProfessionInfo may contain additional applicationspecific information in * DER-encoded form. * *

* By means of different namingAuthority-OIDs or profession OIDs hierarchies of * professions, specializations, disciplines, fields of activity, etc. can be * expressed. The issuing admission authority should always be indicated (field * admissionAuthority), whenever a registration number is presented. Still, * information on admissions can be given without indicating an admission or a * naming authority by the exclusive use of the component professionItems. In * this case the certification authority is responsible for the verification of * the admission information. *

* This attribute is single-valued. Still, several admissions can be captured in * the sequence structure of the component contentsOfAdmissions of * AdmissionSyntax or in the component professionInfos of Admissions. The * component admissionAuthority of AdmissionSyntax serves as default value for * the component admissionAuthority of Admissions. Within the latter component * the default value can be overwritten, in case that another authority is * responsible. The component namingAuthority of Admissions serves as a default * value for the component namingAuthority of ProfessionInfo. Within the latter * component the default value can be overwritten, in case that another naming * authority needs to be recorded. *

* The length of the string objects is limited to 128 characters. It is * recommended to indicate a namingAuthorityURL in all issued attribute * certificates. If a namingAuthorityURL is indicated, the field professionItems * of ProfessionInfo should contain only registered titles. If the field * professionOIDs exists, it has to contain the OIDs of the professions listed * in professionItems in the same order. In general, the field professionInfos * should contain only one entry, unless the admissions that are to be listed * are logically connected (e.g. they have been issued under the same admission * number). * * @see org.bouncycastle.asn1.isismtt.x509.Admissions * @see org.bouncycastle.asn1.isismtt.x509.ProfessionInfo * @see org.bouncycastle.asn1.isismtt.x509.NamingAuthority */ public class AdmissionSyntax extends ASN1Object { private GeneralName admissionAuthority; private ASN1Sequence contentsOfAdmissions; public static AdmissionSyntax getInstance(Object obj) { if (obj == null || obj instanceof AdmissionSyntax) { return (AdmissionSyntax)obj; } if (obj instanceof ASN1Sequence) { return new AdmissionSyntax((ASN1Sequence)obj); } throw new IllegalArgumentException("illegal object in getInstance: " + obj.getClass().getName()); } /** * Constructor from ASN1Sequence. *
