The parent class for all constructed encodings. The value attribute of a Constructive is always an Array. Attributes are the same as for ASN1Data, with the addition of tagging.

SET and SEQUENCE

Most constructed encodings come in the form of a SET or a SEQUENCE. These encodings are represented by one of the two sub-classes of Constructive:

• OpenSSL::ASN1::Set

• OpenSSL::ASN1::Sequence

Please note that tagged sequences and sets are still parsed as instances of ASN1Data. Find further details on tagged values there.

Example - constructing a SEQUENCE

int = OpenSSL::ASN1::Integer.new(1)
str = OpenSSL::ASN1::PrintableString.new('abc')
sequence = OpenSSL::ASN1::Sequence.new( [ int, str ] )

Example - constructing a SET

int = OpenSSL::ASN1::Integer.new(1)
str = OpenSSL::ASN1::PrintableString.new('abc')
set = OpenSSL::ASN1::Set.new( [ int, str ] )

An OpenSSL::OCSP::CertificateId identifies a certificate to the CA so that a status check can be performed.

SEC_WINNT_AUTH_IDENTITY structure

Error raised when a response from the server is non-parseable.

IO wrapper that creates digests of contents written to the IO it wraps.

Used internally by Fiddle::Importer

Wrapper for arrays within a struct

Cleared reference exception

The base exception for JSON errors.

This exception is raised if the required unicode support is missing on the system. Usually this means that the iconv library is not installed.

OpenSSL::Config

Configuration for the openssl library.

Many system’s installation of openssl library will depend on your system configuration. See the value of OpenSSL::Config::DEFAULT_CONFIG_FILE for the location of the file for your host.

See also www.openssl.org/docs/apps/config.html

General error for openssl library configuration files. Including formatting, parsing errors, etc.

Scan scalars for built in types

Thrown when PTY::check is called for a pid that represents a process that has exited.

Socket::AncillaryData represents the ancillary data (control information) used by sendmsg and recvmsg system call. It contains socket family, control message (cmsg) level, cmsg type and cmsg data.

Zlib::GzipWriter is a class for writing gzipped files. GzipWriter should be used with an instance of IO, or IO-like, object.

Following two example generate the same result.

Zlib::GzipWriter.open('hoge.gz') do |gz|
  gz.write 'jugemu jugemu gokou no surikire...'
end

File.open('hoge.gz', 'w') do |f|
  gz = Zlib::GzipWriter.new(f)
  gz.write 'jugemu jugemu gokou no surikire...'
  gz.close
end

To make like gzip(1) does, run following:

orig = 'hoge.txt'
Zlib::GzipWriter.open('hoge.gz') do |gz|
  gz.mtime = File.mtime(orig)
  gz.orig_name = orig
  gz.write IO.binread(orig)
end

NOTE: Due to the limitation of Ruby’s finalizer, you must explicitly close GzipWriter objects by Zlib::GzipWriter#close etc. Otherwise, GzipWriter will be not able to write the gzip footer and will generate a broken gzip file.
