Title
Body
I'm trying to read a custom extension from a digital certificate. I know the value is a GeneralString encoded in DER. Is there an easy way to correctly decode it and get a Java String? I tried the following, but 's' includes some of the encoding metadata as junk characters at the start of the string. byte[] ext = cert.getExtensionValue("1.2.3.4"); String s= new String(ext); System.out.println(s); Is there a quick and easy way to do this? Or do I really need to use some full fledged ASN.1 library? Thanks!
