Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`int`	`constrains(GeneralNameInterface inputName)` Return type of constraint inputName places on this name: NAME_DIFF_TYPE = -1: input name is different type from name (i.e.
`void`	`encode(DerOutputStream out)` Encode the name to the specified DerOutputStream.

- Method Detail
  - getType
```
int getType()
```
    Return the type of the general name, as defined above.
  - encode
```
void encode(DerOutputStream out)
            throws java.io.IOException
```
    Encode the name to the specified DerOutputStream.
    
    Parameters:
    out - the DerOutputStream to encode the GeneralName to.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.io.IOException - thrown if the GeneralName could not be encoded.
  - constrains
```
int constrains(GeneralNameInterface inputName)
               throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
```
    Return type of constraint inputName places on this name:
    - NAME_DIFF_TYPE = -1: input name is different type from name (i.e. does not constrain).
    - NAME_MATCH = 0: input name matches name.
    - NAME_NARROWS = 1: input name narrows name (is lower in the naming subtree)
    - NAME_WIDENS = 2: input name widens name (is higher in the naming subtree)
    - NAME_SAME_TYPE = 3: input name does not match or narrow name, but is same type.
    . These results are used in checking NameConstraints during certification path verification.
    Parameters:
    inputName - to be checked for being constrained
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if name is same type, but comparison operations are not supported for this name type.
  - subtreeDepth
```
int subtreeDepth()
                 throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
```
    Return subtree depth of this name for purposes of determining NameConstraints minimum and maximum bounds and for calculating path lengths in name subtrees.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - if not supported for this name type
