public class AgentIdentityFactory

extends CertificateFactorySpi

Factory for creating AgentIdentity certificates form input streams. Only restoring a single certificate is supported. Multiple certificates and certificate revocation lists are not implemented and will throw an exception if called.

Constructor Summary

AgentIdentityFactory()
Creates a new factory

Method Summary

Certificate	engineGenerateCertificate(InputStream inStream) Generates a certificate object and initializes it with the data read from the input stream inStream. The given input stream inStream must contain a single AgentIdentity certificate. The stream must immediately start with the certificate (and only this data is consumed).
Collection	engineGenerateCertificates(InputStream inStream) Returns a (possibly empty) collection view of the certificates read from the given input stream inStream.
CRL	engineGenerateCRL(InputStream inStream) Generates a certificate revocation list (CRL) object and initializes it with the data read from the input stream inStream.
Collection	engineGenerateCRLs(InputStream inStream) Returns a (possibly empty) collection view of the CRLs read from the given input stream inStream.

Method Detail

engineGenerateCertificate

public Certificate engineGenerateCertificate(InputStream inStream)
                                      throws CertificateException

Generates a certificate object and initializes it with the data read from the input stream inStream.
The given input stream inStream must contain a single AgentIdentity certificate.
The stream must immediately start with the certificate (and only this data is consumed).

Overrides:

engineGenerateCertificate in class CertificateFactorySpi

Parameters:

inStream - an input stream with the certificate data.

Returns:

an AgentIdentity with the data from the input stream.

Throws:

CertificateException - on parsing errors.

engineGenerateCertificates

public Collection engineGenerateCertificates(InputStream inStream)
                                      throws CertificateException

Returns a (possibly empty) collection view of the certificates read from the given input stream inStream.
NOT IMPLEMENTED

Overrides:

engineGenerateCertificates in class CertificateFactorySpi

Parameters:

inStream - the input stream with the certificates.

Returns:

a (possibly empty) collection view of java.security.cert.Certificate objects initialized with the data from the input stream.

Throws:

CertificateException - on parsing errors.

engineGenerateCRL

public CRL engineGenerateCRL(InputStream inStream)
                      throws CRLException

Generates a certificate revocation list (CRL) object and initializes it with the data read from the input stream inStream.
NOT IMPLEMENTED

Overrides:

engineGenerateCRL in class CertificateFactorySpi

Parameters:

inStream - an input stream with the CRL data.

Returns:

a CRL object initialized with the data from the input stream.

Throws:

CRLException - on parsing errors.

engineGenerateCRLs

public Collection engineGenerateCRLs(InputStream inStream)
                              throws CRLException

Returns a (possibly empty) collection view of the CRLs read from the given input stream inStream.
NOT IMPLEMENTED

Overrides:

engineGenerateCRLs in class CertificateFactorySpi

Parameters:

inStream - the input stream with the CRLs.

Returns:

a (possibly empty) collection view of java.security.cert.CRL objects initialized with the data from the input stream.

Throws:

CRLException - on parsing errors.
