Method Detail

nextData

public byte[] nextData()
                throws IOException

Get the next PEM part. It returns the base64 decoded data between the next BEGIN and END lines.

nextInputStream

public InputStream nextInputStream()
                            throws IOException

Get the next PEM part as a InputStream.

toPEM

public static byte[] toPEM(byte[] data,
                           String id)

Convert the data to PEM format. Id should be one of the String constants defined in this class and data should be the DER encoding of an object of this type.

Example: PEM.toPEM(cert.getEncoded(), PEM.PEM_ID_CERTIFICATE);
