## opencard.opt.database
Class SecurityAttribute

    java.lang.Object
      opencard.opt.database.SecurityAttribute

    public class SecurityAttribute

extends java.lang.Object

A `SecurityAttribute` is a wrapper for a byte array that holds a security attribute (DO, or Data Object) to be passed as parameter to some functions of a `DatabaseCardService` (such as `createTable`, `createView`, or `presentUser`). Note that the ISO7816-7 standard does not specify what information should be provided and in what form. This is up to proprietary sub-classes to add semantics to this raw data.

Important Note: as when security attributes are specified in a Command APDU, it is always in the form of: 'Lp ' (see the ISO7816-7 standard) where 'Lp' is the Parameter length and 'DO' (Data Object) the actual byte array, the `getBytes` method of `SecurityAttribute` is returning the security information in this form (i.e., with the data length added as one byte at the beginning of the returned byte array.

Constructor Detail

### SecurityAttribute

    public SecurityAttribute(byte[] dObj)

### SecurityAttribute

    public SecurityAttribute(java.lang.String password)

Method Detail

### getBytes

    public byte[] getBytes()

  Copies the byte values from this object data into the destination byte array. In the first element of the returned array, the length of the data is inserted, thus the returned array is suitable to be directly included into an APDU command.

  Returns:
    The resultant byte array

### getDataLength

    public byte getDataLength()
