Interface CMSInputConnector

All Known Implementing Classes:

CMSAuthenticatedDataInputConnector, CMSCompressedDataInputConnector, CMSDigestedDataInputConnector, CMSEncryptedDataInputConnector, CMSEnvelopedDataInputConnector, CMSSignedDataInputConnector

public interface CMSInputConnector

A CMSInputConnector is used in place of a CMSInputStream when reading nested CMS objects.

A CMSInputConnector should be created for the enclosed object, and passed to a CMSInputStream or CMSInputConnector for the enclosing object.

A CMSInputConnector expects the Content field of the CMS ContentInfo structure i.e. the underlying input stream must be positioned just after the explicit [0] tag wrapper.

If the underlying input stream is positioned just at the beginning of the CMS ContentInfo structure, use the CMSInputStream instead.
