X509CRLSelector
extends Object
implements
CRLSelector
java.lang.Object | |
↳ | java.security.cert.X509CRLSelector |
A CRLSelector
that selects X509CRLs
that
match all specified criteria. This class is particularly useful when
selecting CRLs from a CertStore
to check revocation status
of a particular certificate.
When first constructed, an X509CRLSelector
has no criteria
enabled and each of the get
methods return a default
value (null
). Therefore, the match
method
would return true
for any X509CRL
. Typically,
several criteria are enabled (by calling setIssuers
or setDateAndTime
, for instance) and then the
X509CRLSelector
is passed to
CertStore.getCRLs
or some similar
method.
Please refer to RFC 3280: Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile for definitions of the X.509 CRL fields and extensions mentioned below.
Concurrent Access
Unless otherwise specified, the methods defined in this class are not thread-safe. Multiple threads that need to access a single object concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and provide the necessary locking. Multiple threads each manipulating separate objects need not synchronize.

X509CRLSelector ()
Creates an X509CRLSelector
. Initially, no criteria are set
so any X509CRL
will match.
void addIssuer (X500Principal issuer)
Adds a name to the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished
name in the X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names.
This method allows the caller to add a name to the set of issuer names
which X509CRLs
may contain. The specified name is added to
any previous value for the issuerNames criterion.
If the specified name is a duplicate, it may be ignored.
Parameters | |
---|---|
issuer |
X500Principal :
the issuer as X500Principal |
void addIssuerName (byte[] name)
Adds a name to the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished
name in the X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names.
This method allows the caller to add a name to the set of issuer names
which X509CRLs
may contain. The specified name is added to
any previous value for the issuerNames criterion. If the specified name
is a duplicate, it may be ignored.
If a name is specified as a byte array, it should contain a single DER
encoded distinguished name, as defined in X.501. The ASN.1 notation for
this structure is as follows.
The name is provided as a byte array. This byte array should contain
a single DER encoded distinguished name, as defined in X.501. The ASN.1
notation for this structure appears in the documentation for
setIssuerNames(Collection names)
.
Note that the byte array supplied here is cloned to protect against subsequent modifications.
Parameters | |
---|---|
name |
byte :
a byte array containing the name in ASN.1 DER encoded form |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
if a parsing error occurs |
void addIssuerName (String name)
Denigrated, use addIssuer(X500Principal) or addIssuerName(byte[]) instead. This method should not be relied on as it can fail to match some CRLs because of a loss of encoding information in the RFC 2253 String form of some distinguished names.
Adds a name to the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished
name in the X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names.
This method allows the caller to add a name to the set of issuer names
which X509CRLs
may contain. The specified name is added to
any previous value for the issuerNames criterion.
If the specified name is a duplicate, it may be ignored.
Parameters | |
---|---|
name |
String :
the name in RFC 2253 form |
Throws | |
---|---|
IOException |
if a parsing error occurs |
X509Certificate getCertificateChecking ()
Returns the certificate being checked. This is not a criterion. Rather,
it is optional information that may help a CertStore
find CRLs that would be relevant when checking revocation for the
specified certificate. If the value returned is null
, then
no such optional information is provided.
Returns | |
---|---|
X509Certificate |
the certificate being checked (or null ) |
See also:
Date getDateAndTime ()
Returns the dateAndTime criterion. The specified date must be
equal to or later than the value of the thisUpdate component
of the X509CRL
and earlier than the value of the
nextUpdate component. There is no match if the
X509CRL
does not contain a nextUpdate component.
If null
, no dateAndTime check will be done.
Note that the Date
returned is cloned to protect against
subsequent modifications.
Returns | |
---|---|
Date |
the Date to match against (or null ) |
See also:
Collection<Object> getIssuerNames ()
Returns a copy of the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished
name in the X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names. If the value returned is null
, any
issuer distinguished name will do.
If the value returned is not null
, it is a
Collection
of names. Each name is a String
or a byte array representing a distinguished name (in RFC 2253 or
ASN.1 DER encoded form, respectively). Note that the
Collection
returned may contain duplicate names.
If a name is specified as a byte array, it should contain a single DER
encoded distinguished name, as defined in X.501. The ASN.1 notation for
this structure is given in the documentation for
setIssuerNames(Collection names)
.
Note that a deep copy is performed on the Collection
to
protect against subsequent modifications.
Returns | |
---|---|
Collection<Object> |
a Collection of names (or null ) |
See also:
Collection<X500Principal> getIssuers ()
Returns the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished
name in the X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names. If the value returned is null
, any
issuer distinguished name will do.
If the value returned is not null
, it is a
unmodifiable Collection
of X500Principal
s.
Returns | |
---|---|
Collection<X500Principal> |
an unmodifiable Collection of names
(or null ) |
See also:
BigInteger getMaxCRL ()
Returns the maxCRLNumber criterion. The X509CRL
must have a
CRL number extension whose value is less than or equal to the
specified value. If null
, no maxCRLNumber check will be
done.
Returns | |
---|---|
BigInteger |
the maximum CRL number accepted (or null )
|
BigInteger getMinCRL ()
Returns the minCRLNumber criterion. The X509CRL
must have a
CRL number extension whose value is greater than or equal to the
specified value. If null
, no minCRLNumber check will be done.
Returns | |
---|---|
BigInteger |
the minimum CRL number accepted (or null )
|
boolean match (CRL crl)
Decides whether a CRL
should be selected.
Parameters | |
---|---|
crl |
CRL :
the CRL to be checked |
Returns | |
---|---|
boolean |
true if the CRL should be selected,
false otherwise
|
void setCertificateChecking (X509Certificate cert)
Sets the certificate being checked. This is not a criterion. Rather,
it is optional information that may help a CertStore
find CRLs that would be relevant when checking revocation for the
specified certificate. If null
is specified, then no
such optional information is provided.
Parameters | |
---|---|
cert |
X509Certificate :
the X509Certificate being checked
(or null ) |

equal to or later than the value of the thisUpdate component
of the X509CRL
and earlier than the value of the
nextUpdate component. There is no match if the X509CRL
does not contain a nextUpdate component.
If null
, no dateAndTime check will be done.
Note that the Date
supplied here is cloned to protect
against subsequent modifications.
Parameters | |
---|---|

See also:
void setIssuerNames (Collection<?> names)
Note: use setIssuers(Collection) instead
or only specify the byte array form of distinguished names when using
this method. See addIssuerName(String)
for more information.
Sets the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished name in the
X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names. If null
, any issuer distinguished name
will do.
This method allows the caller to specify, with a single method call,
the complete set of issuer names which X509CRLs
may contain.
The specified value replaces the previous value for the issuerNames
criterion.
The names
parameter (if not null
) is a
Collection
of names. Each name is a String
or a byte array representing a distinguished name (in
RFC 2253 or
ASN.1 DER encoded form, respectively). If null
is supplied
as the value for this argument, no issuerNames check will be performed.
Note that the names
parameter can contain duplicate
distinguished names, but they may be removed from the
Collection
of names returned by the
getIssuerNames
method.
If a name is specified as a byte array, it should contain a single DER encoded distinguished name, as defined in X.501. The ASN.1 notation for this structure is as follows.
Name ::= CHOICE {
RDNSequence }
RDNSequence ::= SEQUENCE OF RelativeDistinguishedName
RelativeDistinguishedName ::=
SET SIZE (1 .. MAX) OF AttributeTypeAndValue
AttributeTypeAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
type AttributeType,
value AttributeValue }
AttributeType ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER
AttributeValue ::= ANY DEFINED BY AttributeType
....
DirectoryString ::= CHOICE {
teletexString TeletexString (SIZE (1..MAX)),
printableString PrintableString (SIZE (1..MAX)),
universalString UniversalString (SIZE (1..MAX)),
utf8String UTF8String (SIZE (1.. MAX)),
bmpString BMPString (SIZE (1..MAX)) }
Note that a deep copy is performed on the Collection
to
protect against subsequent modifications.
