com.entrust.toolkit.x509.extensions.EntrustVersInfo

public class EntrustVersInfo
extends V3Extension

This class implements the EntrustVersInfo Extension.

The EntrustVersInfo extension is used by Entrust Technologies to identify the version and other information about the CA which issued the certificate.

The EntrustVersInfo OID is "1.2.840.113533.7.65.0".

The ASN.1 definition of the EntrustVersInfo extension is specified as follows:

 EntrustVersInfoSyntax ::= SEQUENCE { 
       entrustVers GeneralString, 
       entrustInfoFlags EntrustInfoFlags 
 } 

 EntrustInfoFlags::= BIT STRING {
    keyUpdateAllowe (0), -- client is allowed to update this certificate 
    obsolete1 (1), -- obsolete 
    pkixCertif (2), -- certificate created by PKIX request 
    enterpriseCategory (3), -- information purposes only 
    webCategory (4), -- information purposes only 
    setCategory (5), -- information purposes only 
    v21Mode (6), -- certificate created in v2.1 compatibility mode 
    xcertCategory (7), -- information purposes only 
    ignoreNoKeyBackup (8) } – ignore global no key backup command
 

The entrustVers field specifies the version of Entrust Authority Security Manager that created the certificate. The entrustInfo field is a proprietary bitmap used to describe the certificate and the manner in which it was created.

This class provides several methods for getting (but not setting) the component values of a EntrustVersInfo extension object.

Constructor Detail

EntrustVersInfo

public EntrustVersInfo()

Default constructor.

Generating a new EntrustVersInfo extension is not supported. This class is provided for compatibility with existing certificates only.

Method Detail

getObjectID

public ObjectID getObjectID()

Returns the object ID of this EntrustVersInfo extension

Specified by:

getObjectID in class V3Extension

Returns:

the object ID

init

public void init(ASN1Object obj)
          throws X509ExtensionException

Inits this EntrustVersInfo implementation with an ASN1Object representing the value of this extension.

The ASN1Object is the extensionValue from ASN.1 type "Extension" representing the entrustVers and entrustInfo values of this extension.

Specified by:

init in class V3Extension

Parameters:

obj - the extensionValue as an ASN1Object

Throws:

X509ExtensionException - if the extension could not be parsed

toASN1Object

public ASN1Object toASN1Object()

Return the ASN1Object value of the extension.

Specified by:

toASN1Object in class V3Extension

Returns:

the ASN1Object value. Returns null if the object has not been initialized.

getEntrustVers

public java.lang.String getEntrustVers()

Returns the entrustVers value of this EntrustVersInfo extension specifying the version of the Entrust Authority Security Manager which issued the certificate.

Returns:

the entrustVers value.

getEntrustInfo

public byte getEntrustInfo()

Deprecated. call getEntrustInfoAsBytes()

Returns the entrustInfo value of this EntrustVersInfo extension specifying details about the certificate and how it was created. This remains backwards compatible with the existing toolkit API, but it is possible a bit of data may be lost.

Returns:

the entrustInfo value.

getEntrustInfoAsBytes

public byte[] getEntrustInfoAsBytes()

Returns the entrustInfo value of this EntrustVersInfo extension specifying details about the certificate and how it was created as a byte array String

Returns:

the entrustInfo value.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hashcode for this identity.

Specified by:

hashCode in class V3Extension

Returns:

a hash code for this identity

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string that represents the contents of this EntrustVersInfo extension.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

the string representation
