Interface X509Data

All Superinterfaces:

XMLStructure

public interface X509Data
extends XMLStructure

A representation of the XML X509Data element as defined in the W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing. An X509Data object contains one or more identifers of keys or X.509 certificates (or certificates' identifiers or a revocation list). The XML Schema Definition is defined as:

<element name="X509Data" type="ds:X509DataType"/>
    <complexType name="X509DataType">
        <sequence maxOccurs="unbounded">
          <choice>
            <element name="X509IssuerSerial" type="ds:X509IssuerSerialType"/>
            <element name="X509SKI" type="base64Binary"/>
            <element name="X509SubjectName" type="string"/>
            <element name="X509Certificate" type="base64Binary"/>
            <element name="X509CRL" type="base64Binary"/>
            <any namespace="##other" processContents="lax"/>
          </choice>
        </sequence>
    </complexType>

    <complexType name="X509IssuerSerialType">
      <sequence>
        <element name="X509IssuerName" type="string"/>
        <element name="X509SerialNumber" type="integer"/>
      </sequence>
    </complexType>

An X509Data instance may be created by invoking the newX509Data methods of the KeyInfoFactory class and passing it a list of one or more XMLStructures representing X.509 content; for example:

KeyInfoFactory factory = KeyInfoFactory.getInstance("DOM");
   X509Data x509Data = factory.newX509Data
       (Collections.singletonList("cn=Alice"));

Fields

TYPE

static final String TYPE

URI identifying the X509Data KeyInfo type: http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#X509Data. This can be specified as the value of the type parameter of the RetrievalMethod class to describe a remote X509Data structure.

RAW_X509_CERTIFICATE_TYPE

static final String RAW_X509_CERTIFICATE_TYPE

URI identifying the binary (ASN.1 DER) X.509 Certificate KeyInfo type: http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#rawX509Certificate. This can be specified as the value of the type parameter of the RetrievalMethod class to describe a remote X509 Certificate.

Methods

getContent

List getContent()
