Constructor Details

X509CertificateFactory

public X509CertificateFactory()
Constructs a new CertificateFactorySpi

Method Details

engineGenerateCRL

public CRL engineGenerateCRL(InputStream inStream)
            throws CRLException
Generates a CRL based on the encoded data read from the InputStream. The input stream must contain only one CRL. If there exists a specialized CRL class for the CRL format handled by the certificate factory then the return CRL should be a typecast of it. Ex: A X.509 CertificateFactory should return X509CRL.
Overrides:
engineGenerateCRL in interface CertificateFactorySpi
Parameters:
inStream - an input stream containing the CRL data
Returns:
a CRL initialized with InputStream data.
Throws:
CRLException - CRL parsing error

engineGenerateCRLs

public Collection<E> engineGenerateCRLs(InputStream inStream)
            throws CRLException

engineGenerateCertPath

public CertPath engineGenerateCertPath(InputStream in)
            throws CertificateEncodingException
Generate a CertPath and initialize it with data parsed from the input stream. The default encoding of this factory is used.
Overrides:
engineGenerateCertPath in interface CertificateFactorySpi
Parameters:
Returns:
A CertPath initialized from the input stream data.

engineGenerateCertPath

public CertPath engineGenerateCertPath(InputStream in,
                                       String encoding)
            throws CertificateEncodingException
Generate a CertPath and initialize it with data parsed from the input stream, using the specified encoding.
Overrides:
engineGenerateCertPath in interface CertificateFactorySpi
Parameters:
encoding - The encoding of the InputStream data.
Returns:
A CertPath initialized from the input stream data.

engineGenerateCertPath

public CertPath engineGenerateCertPath(List<E> certs)

engineGenerateCertificate

public Certificate engineGenerateCertificate(InputStream inStream)
            throws CertificateException
Generates a Certificate based on the encoded data read from the InputStream. The input stream must contain only one certificate. If there exists a specialized certificate class for the certificate format handled by the certificate factory then the return Ceritificate should be a typecast of it. Ex: A X.509 CertificateFactory should return X509Certificate. For X.509 certificates, the certificate in inStream must be DER encoded and supplied in binary or printable (Base64) encoding. If the certificate is in Base64 encoding, it must be bounded by -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----, and -----END CERTIFICATE-----.
Overrides:
engineGenerateCertificate in interface CertificateFactorySpi
Parameters:
inStream - an input stream containing the certificate data
Returns:
a certificate initialized with InputStream data.
Throws:
CertificateException - Certificate parsing error

engineGenerateCertificates

public Collection<E> engineGenerateCertificates(InputStream inStream)
            throws CertificateException

engineGetCertPathEncodings

public Iterator<E> engineGetCertPathEncodings()
Returns an Iterator of CertPath encodings supported by this factory, with the default encoding first. The returned Iterator cannot be modified.
Overrides:
engineGetCertPathEncodings in interface CertificateFactorySpi
Returns:
The Iterator of supported encodings.
