Constructor	Description
Time(Date time)	Creates a time object from a given date - if the date is between 1950 and 2049 a UTCTime object is generated, otherwise a GeneralizedTime is used.
Time(Date time, Locale locale)	Creates a time object from a given date and locale - if the date is between 1950 and 2049 a UTCTime object is generated, otherwise a GeneralizedTime is used.
Time(ASN1Primitive time)

Constructor Details

Time

public Time(ASN1Primitive time)

Time

public Time(Date time)

Creates a time object from a given date - if the date is between 1950 and 2049 a UTCTime object is generated, otherwise a GeneralizedTime is used.

Parameters:

time - a date object representing the time of interest.

Time

public Time(Date time,
 Locale locale)

Creates a time object from a given date and locale - if the date is between 1950 and 2049 a UTCTime object is generated, otherwise a GeneralizedTime is used. The locale selects the calendar used by the underlying SimpleDateFormat. Most callers should prefer the simple Time(Date) form, which always formats under an English Gregorian locale (so the encoded year is the spec-mandated Gregorian one regardless of Locale.getDefault(), including on JVMs whose default uses a non-Gregorian calendar such as Thai Buddhist th_TH_TH_#u-nu-thai or Japanese Imperial ja_JP_JP_#u-ca-japanese). Reach for this (Date, Locale) form only when you need explicit control over the formatter's calendar.

Parameters:

time - a date object representing the time of interest.

locale - the Locale whose calendar the underlying SimpleDateFormat should use.

Method Details

getInstance

public static Time getInstance(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
 boolean explicit)

getDate

public Date getDate()

toASN1Primitive

public ASN1Primitive toASN1Primitive()

Produce an object suitable for an ASN1OutputStream.

Time ::= CHOICE {
            utcTime        UTCTime,
