    - #### DERVideotexString

          public DERVideotexString​(byte[] string)

      basic constructor - with bytes.
      Parameters:
        `string` - the byte encoding of the characters making up the string.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### getInstance

          public static DERVideotexString getInstance​(java.lang.Object obj)

      return a Videotex String from the passed in object
      Parameters:
        `obj` - a DERVideotexString or an object that can be converted into one.
      Returns:
        a DERVideotexString instance, or null.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the object cannot be converted.

    - #### getInstance

          public static DERVideotexString getInstance​(ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                                      boolean explicit)

      return a Videotex String from a tagged object.
      Parameters:
        `obj` - the tagged object holding the object we want
        `explicit` - true if the object is meant to be explicitly tagged false otherwise.
      Returns:
        a DERVideotexString instance, or null.
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the tagged object cannot be converted.

    - #### getOctets

          public byte[] getOctets()

    - #### hashCode

          public int hashCode()

    - #### getString

          public java.lang.String getString()

      Description copied from interface: `ASN1String`
      Return a Java String representation of this STRING type's content.
      Specified by:
        `getString` in interface `ASN1String`
      Returns:
        a Java String representation of this STRING.
