oracle.security.crypto.cert
Class TrustedCAPolicy

java.lang.Object
oracle.security.crypto.cert.TrustedCAPolicy

All Implemented Interfaces:

CertificateTrustPolicy

public class TrustedCAPolicy

extends java.lang.Object

implements CertificateTrustPolicy

A certificate trust policy based on a set of trusted root CAs.

In this policy, a certificate will be trusted if and only if it is part of a valid certificate chain which terminates in one of the trusted root CAs.

This policy has two options for certificate chain verification:

1. requireCRL - If true, then for every certificate in a chain (unless it is one of the trusted root CA certificates) a valid CRL must be provided to determine its revocation status. The default is false.
2. requireCAFlag - If true, then every intermediate CA certificate (excluding the root CA or the end entity certificate) must contain a Basic Constraints extension, with the CA flag set. The default for this option is true.

Constructor Summary

TrustedCAPolicy()
Creates a new TrustedCAPolicy with no CA certs.

TrustedCAPolicy(java.util.List<X509> trustedCACerts, boolean requireCRL, boolean requireCA)
Creates a new TrustedCAPolicy with the given trusted CA certificates and policy flags.

TrustedCAPolicy(java.util.Vector<X509> trustedCACerts, boolean requireCRL, boolean requireCA)
Deprecated. Use TrustedCAPolicy(List, boolean, boolean)

Method Summary

void	addTrustedCA(X509 trustedCACert) Adds a trusted CA certificate to the policy list, replacing any existing certificate with the same subject name.
boolean	getRequireCAFlag()
boolean	getRequireCRLs()
java.util.ArrayList<X509>	getTrustedCAs() Returns an ArrayList of the trusted CA certificates in this TrustedCAPolicy.
CertificateVerifier	makeCertificateVerifier(java.util.List<X509> certificates, java.util.List<CRL> crls) Creates and returns a certificate verifier for the specified certificates and/or CRLs, based on the list of trusted CA certificates in the policy.
CertificateVerifier	makeCertificateVerifier(java.util.Vector<X509> certificates, java.util.Vector<CRL> crls) Deprecated. Use makeCertificateVerifier(List, List)
void	setRequireCAFlag(boolean flag) Sets a flag indicating whether or not certificates added to the trusted CA policy must have the CA attribute in order for them to be used by a CertificateVerifier.
void	setRequireCRLs(boolean flag) Sets a flag indicating whether or not a CRL is required for each certificate to be verified by a CertificateVerifier.
void	setTrustedCAs(java.util.List<X509> trustedCACerts) Sets the list of trusted CAs, clearing any previously defined trusted CA certificates.
void	setTrustedCAs(java.util.Vector<X509> trustedCACerts) Deprecated. Use setTrustedCAs(List)
java.util.Enumeration<X509>	trustedCAs() Deprecated. Use getTrustedCAs() and then get Iterator

addTrustedCA

public void addTrustedCA(X509 trustedCACert)

Adds a trusted CA certificate to the policy list, replacing any existing certificate with the same subject name.

setRequireCRLs

public void setRequireCRLs(boolean flag)

getRequireCRLs

public boolean getRequireCRLs()

setRequireCAFlag

public void setRequireCAFlag(boolean flag)

Sets a flag indicating whether or not certificates added to the trusted CA policy must have the CA attribute in order for them to be used by a CertificateVerifier. Default is true.

getRequireCAFlag
