Constructor Detail

AttributeCertificateIssuer

public AttributeCertificateIssuer(AttCertIssuer issuer)

Deprecated.

Set the issuer directly with the ASN.1 structure.

Parameters:

issuer - The issuer

AttributeCertificateIssuer

public AttributeCertificateIssuer(X500Principal principal)
                           throws IOException

Deprecated.

Throws:

IOException

AttributeCertificateIssuer

public AttributeCertificateIssuer(X509Principal principal)

Deprecated.

Method Detail

getPrincipals

public Principal[] getPrincipals()

Deprecated.

Return any principal objects inside the attribute certificate issuer object.

Returns:

an array of Principal objects (usually X500Principal)

clone

public Object clone()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: Object

Creates and returns a copy of this Object. The default implementation returns a so-called "shallow" copy: It creates a new instance of the same class and then copies the field values (including object references) from this instance to the new instance. A "deep" copy, in contrast, would also recursively clone nested objects. A subclass that needs to implement this kind of cloning should call super.clone() to create the new instance and then create deep copies of the nested, mutable objects.

Specified by:

clone in interface CertSelector

Specified by:

clone in interface Selector

Overrides:

clone in class Object

Returns:

a copy of this object.

match

public boolean match(Certificate cert)

Deprecated.

Description copied from interface: CertSelector

Checks whether the defined criteria of this instance match the specified certificate.

Specified by:

match in interface CertSelector

Parameters:

cert - the certificate to be evaluated.

Returns:

true if the certificate matches the criteria, false otherwise.

equals

public boolean equals(Object obj)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: Object

Compares this instance with the specified object and indicates if they are equal. In order to be equal, o must represent the same object as this instance using a class-specific comparison. The general contract is that this comparison should be reflexive, symmetric, and transitive. Also, no object reference other than null is equal to null.

The default implementation returns true only if this == o. See Writing a correct equals method if you intend implementing your own equals method.

The general contract for the equals and Object.hashCode() methods is that if equals returns true for any two objects, then hashCode() must return the same value for these objects. This means that subclasses of Object usually override either both methods or neither of them.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

obj - the object to compare this instance with.

Returns:

true if the specified object is equal to this Object; false otherwise.

See Also:

Object.hashCode()

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: Object

Returns an integer hash code for this object. By contract, any two objects for which Object.equals(java.lang.Object) returns true must return the same hash code value. This means that subclasses of Object usually override both methods or neither method.

Note that hash values must not change over time unless information used in equals comparisons also changes.

See Writing a correct hashCode method if you intend implementing your own hashCode method.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

this object's hash code.

Object.equals(java.lang.Object)

match

public boolean match(Object obj)

Deprecated.

Specified by:

match in interface Selector
