Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.1 MBean API Reference

Part Number E13945-02

weblogic.security.providers.pk
Interface WebLogicCertPathProviderMBean

All Superinterfaces:
CertPathBuilderMBean, CertPathProviderMBean, CertPathValidatorMBean, ProviderMBean

public interface WebLogicCertPathProviderMBean
extends CertPathBuilderMBean, CertPathValidatorMBean

The WebLogicCertPathProviderMBean is used to configure the WebLogic CertPath provider. This provider does Certicom-style certificate validation.

Rather than have its own configuration parameters, it used the server's trusted CA configuration as well as the server's weblogic.security.SSL.enforceConstraints command line switch.

Since this provider does the same checking as the built-in SSL validation, and since SSL may be configured to run the validators, it prevents double work by looking for the special elements that SSL puts in the context to indicate that SSL has already done Certicom-style validation.

Deprecation of MBeanHome and Type-Safe Interfaces

This is a type-safe interface for a WebLogic Server MBean, which you can import into your client classes and access through weblogic.management.MBeanHome. As of 9.0, the MBeanHome interface and all type-safe interfaces for WebLogic Server MBeans are deprecated. Instead, client classes that interact with WebLogic Server MBeans should use standard JMX design patterns in which clients use the javax.management.MBeanServerConnection interface to discover MBeans, attributes, and attribute types at runtime.
