- java.security.cert.PKIXCertPathValidatorResult
- All Implemented Interfaces:

,CertPathValidatorResult
- Direct Known Subclasses:
PKIXCertPathBuilderResult
public class PKIXCertPathValidatorResult extends Object implements CertPathValidatorResult
This class represents the successful result of the PKIX certification path validation algorithm.
Instances of PKIXCertPathValidatorResult
are returned by the validate
method of CertPathValidator
objects implementing the PKIX algorithm.
All PKIXCertPathValidatorResult
objects contain the valid policy tree and subject public key resulting from the validation algorithm, as well as a TrustAnchor
describing the certification authority (CA) that served as a trust anchor for the certification path.
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.

Constructor Detail
PKIXCertPathValidatorResult
public PKIXCertPathValidatorResult(TrustAnchor trustAnchor, PolicyNode policyTree, PublicKey subjectPublicKey)
Creates an instance of PKIXCertPathValidatorResult
containing the specified parameters.
- Parameters:
-
trustAnchor
- aTrustAnchor
describing the CA that served as a trust anchor for the certification path -
policyTree
- the immutable valid policy tree, ornull
if there are no valid policies -
subjectPublicKey
- the public key of the subject - Throws:
-
NullPointerException
- if thesubjectPublicKey
ortrustAnchor
parameters arenull
Method Detail
getTrustAnchor
public TrustAnchor getTrustAnchor()
Returns the TrustAnchor
describing the CA that served as a trust anchor for the certification path.
- Returns:
- the
TrustAnchor
(nevernull
)
getPolicyTree
public PolicyNode getPolicyTree()
Returns the root node of the valid policy tree resulting from the PKIX certification path validation algorithm. The PolicyNode
object that is returned and any objects that it returns through public methods are immutable.
Most applications will not need to examine the valid policy tree. They can achieve their policy processing goals by setting the policy-related parameters in PKIXParameters
. However, more sophisticated applications, especially those that process policy qualifiers, may need to traverse the valid policy tree using the PolicyNode.getParent
and PolicyNode.getChildren
methods.
- Returns:
- the root node of the valid policy tree, or
null
if there are no valid policies
getPublicKey
public PublicKey getPublicKey()
Returns the public key of the subject (target) of the certification path, including any inherited public key parameters if applicable.
- Returns:
- the public key of the subject (never
null
)
clone
public Object clone()
Returns a copy of this object.
- Specified by:
-
clone
in interfaceCertPathValidatorResult
- Overrides:
-
clone
in classObject
- Returns:
- the copy

toString
public String toString()
Return a printable representation of this PKIXCertPathValidatorResult
