     issuer          GeneralName, 
     serialNumber    INTEGER 
 }
 

Since:

7.0

Constructor Detail

CertId

public CertId(GeneralName issuer,
      java.math.BigInteger serialNumber)

Creates a new CertId object with the specified components.

Parameters:

issuer - the issuer of the certificate

serialNumber - the serial number of the certificate

CertId

public CertId(X509Certificate cert)

Creates a new CertId object from an X509Certificate object.

It extracts both the issuer and serial number from the certificate, and then creates the CertId with these values.

Parameters:

cert - the certificate to extract the certificate identifier from

CertId

public CertId(ASN1Object obj)
       throws CodingException

Creates a new CertId from an ASN1Object.

Parameters:

obj - the ASN.1 representation of an CertId structure

Throws:

CodingException - thrown if an errors occurs while decoding the ANS1Object

Method Detail

getIssuer

public GeneralName getIssuer()

Returns the issuer of the certificate.

Returns:

the issuer component

getSerialNumber

public java.math.BigInteger getSerialNumber()

Returns the serial number of the certificate.

Returns:

the serialNumber component

decode

public void decode(ASN1Object obj)
            throws CodingException

Decodes a CertId structure from an ASN1Object.

Specified by:

decode in interface ASN1Type

Parameters:

obj - an ASN.1 representation of an CertId structure

Throws:

CodingException - thrown if an errors occurs while decoding the ANS1Object

toASN1Object

public ASN1Object toASN1Object()

Encodes this CertId object as an ASN1Object.

Specified by:

toASN1Object in interface ASN1Type

Returns:

an ASN.1 representation of this object

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Creates a text representation of the ASN.1 structure of this CertId object.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a text representation of the ASN.1 structure of this object

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object obj)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

Two CertId objects are equal only if their components are equal.

Overrides:

equals in class java.lang.Object

Parameters:

obj - the reference object with which to compare

Returns:

true if the objects are "equal"; false otherwise

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object.

This method is supported for the benefit of hashtables.

Overrides:

hashCode in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

a hash code value for this object.
