Timestamp
extends Object
implements
Serializable
| java.lang.Object | |
| ↳ | java.security.Timestamp |
This class encapsulates information about a signed timestamp. It is immutable. It includes the timestamp's date and time as well as information about the Timestamping Authority (TSA) which generated and signed the timestamp.
Public constructors | |
|---|---|
Timestamp(Date timestamp, CertPath signerCertPath)
Constructs a Timestamp. |
|
Public methods | |
|---|---|
boolean
|
equals(Object obj)
Tests for equality between the specified object and this timestamp. |
CertPath
|
getSignerCertPath()
Returns the certificate path for the Timestamping Authority. |
Date
|
getTimestamp()
Returns the date and time when the timestamp was generated. |

Timestamp (Date timestamp, CertPath signerCertPath)
Constructs a Timestamp.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
timestamp |
Date:
is the timestamp's date and time. It must not be null. |
signerCertPath |
CertPath:
is the TSA's certificate path. It must not be null. |
| Throws | |
|---|---|
NullPointerException |
if timestamp or signerCertPath is null. |
boolean equals (Object obj)
Tests for equality between the specified object and this timestamp. Two timestamps are considered equal if the date and time of their timestamp's and their signer's certificate paths are equal.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
obj |
Object:
the object to test for equality with this timestamp. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
boolean |
true if the timestamp are considered equal, false otherwise. |
CertPath getSignerCertPath ()
Returns the certificate path for the Timestamping Authority.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
CertPath |
The TSA's certificate path. |
Date getTimestamp ()
Returns the date and time when the timestamp was generated.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
Date |
The timestamp's date and time. |
int hashCode ()
Returns the hash code value for this timestamp. The hash code is generated using the date and time of the timestamp and the TSA's certificate path.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
int |
a hash code value for this timestamp. |
String toString ()
Returns a string describing this timestamp.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
String |
A string comprising the date and time of the timestamp and its signer's certificate. |
