[jira] Commented: (HARMONY-4463) [classlib][security] X500Principal equals method work improperly

["Tim Ellison (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HARMONY-4463?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12555919#action_12555919 ] 

Tim Ellison commented on HARMONY-4463:
--------------------------------------

I believe that the #equals method is working correctly.  However, Harmony is producing a different encoding for the X500Principal.

In Harmony ASN.1 we encode "dummy@acme.org" as a UTF-8 string (tag 0x0c), so it becomes "#0c0e64756d6d794061636d652e636f6d"  whereas the RI chooses to encode it as an ASCII IA5String (tag 0x16) as in the test case.

Take a look at org.apache.harmony.security.x501.AttributeValue#getHexString() which tests to see if the value is a printable string.

Question is how to decide the type of string to encode in 'canoncial' format.
