CertPathValidatorSpi

abstract class CertPathValidatorSpi
kotlin.Any
   ↳ java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorSpi

The Service Provider Interface (SPI) for the CertPathValidator class. All CertPathValidator implementations must include a class (the SPI class) that extends this class (CertPathValidatorSpi) and implements all of its methods. In general, instances of this class should only be accessed through the CertPathValidator class. For details, see the Java Cryptography Architecture.

Concurrent Access

Instances of this class need not be protected against concurrent access from multiple threads. Threads that need to access a single CertPathValidatorSpi instance concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and provide the necessary locking before calling the wrapping CertPathValidator object.

However, implementations of CertPathValidatorSpi may still encounter concurrency issues, since multiple threads each manipulating a different CertPathValidatorSpi instance need not synchronize.

Summary

Public constructors

The default constructor.

Public methods
open CertPathChecker!

Returns a CertPathChecker that this implementation uses to check the revocation status of certificates.

abstract CertPathValidatorResult!

Validates the specified certification path using the specified algorithm parameter set.

Public methods

engineGetRevocationChecker

Added in API level 24
open fun engineGetRevocationChecker(): CertPathChecker!

Returns a CertPathChecker that this implementation uses to check the revocation status of certificates. A PKIX implementation returns objects of type PKIXRevocationChecker.

The primary purpose of this method is to allow callers to specify additional input parameters and options specific to revocation checking. See the class description of CertPathValidator for an example.

This method was added to version 1.8 of the Java Platform Standard Edition. In order to maintain backwards compatibility with existing service providers, this method cannot be abstract and by default throws an UnsupportedOperationException.

Return
CertPathChecker! a CertPathChecker that this implementation uses to check the revocation status of certificates
Exceptions
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException if this method is not supported

engineValidate

Added in API level 1
abstract fun engineValidate(
    certPath: CertPath!,
    params: CertPathParameters!
): CertPathValidatorResult!

Validates the specified certification path using the specified algorithm parameter set.

The CertPath specified must be of a type that is supported by the validation algorithm, otherwise an InvalidAlgorithmParameterException will be thrown. For example, a CertPathValidator that implements the PKIX algorithm validates CertPath objects of type X.509.

Parameters
certPath CertPath!: the CertPath to be validated
params CertPathParameters!: the algorithm parameters
Return
CertPathValidatorResult! the result of the validation algorithm
Exceptions
java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException if the CertPath does not validate
java.security.InvalidAlgorithmParameterException if the specified parameters or the type of the specified CertPath are inappropriate for this CertPathValidator
