Constructor Detail

ResourceCertStore

public ResourceCertStore(CertStoreParameters params)
                  throws InvalidAlgorithmParameterException,
                         ResourceStoreException

The sole constructor.

Parameters:

params - the initialization parameters (may be null)

Throws:

InvalidAlgorithmParameterException - if the initialization parameters are inappropriate for this CertStoreSpi

ResourceStoreException - If error loading certs and crls.

Method Detail

engineGetCertificates

public Collection<? extends Certificate> engineGetCertificates(CertSelector selector)
                                                        throws CertStoreException

Returns a Collection of Certificates that match the specified selector. If no Certificates match the selector, an empty Collection will be returned.

For some CertStore types, the resulting Collection may not contain all of the Certificates that match the selector. For instance, an LDAP CertStore may not search all entries in the directory. Instead, it may just search entries that are likely to contain the Certificates it is looking for.

Some CertStore implementations (especially LDAP CertStores) may throw a CertStoreException unless a non-null CertSelector is provided that includes specific criteria that can be used to find the certificates. Issuer and/or subject names are especially useful criteria.

Specified by:

engineGetCertificates in class CertStoreSpi

Parameters:

selector - A CertSelector used to select which Certificates should be returned. Specify null to return all Certificates (if supported).

Returns:

A Collection of Certificates that match the specified selector (never null)

Throws:

CertStoreException - if an exception occurs

engineGetCRLs

public Collection<? extends CRL> engineGetCRLs(CRLSelector selector)
                                        throws CertStoreException

Returns a Collection of CRLs that match the specified selector. If no CRLs match the selector, an empty Collection will be returned.

For some CertStore types, the resulting Collection may not contain all of the CRLs that match the selector. For instance, an LDAP CertStore may not search all entries in the directory. Instead, it may just search entries that are likely to contain the CRLs it is looking for.

Some CertStore implementations (especially LDAP CertStores) may throw a CertStoreException unless a non-null CRLSelector is provided that includes specific criteria that can be used to find the CRLs. Issuer names and/or the certificate to be checked are especially useful.

Specified by:

engineGetCRLs in class CertStoreSpi

Parameters:

selector - A CRLSelector used to select which CRLs should be returned. Specify null to return all CRLs (if supported).

Returns:

A Collection of CRLs that match the specified selector (never null)

Throws:

CertStoreException - if an exception occurs
