public class PKCS10 extends java.lang.Object
PKCS #10 certificate requests are created and sent to Certificate Authorities, which then create X.509 certificates and return them to the entity which created the certificate request. These cert requests basically consist of the subject's X.500 name and public key, signed using the corresponding private key. The ASN.1 syntax for a Certification Request is:CertificationRequest ::= SEQUENCE { certificationRequestInfo CertificationRequestInfo, signatureAlgorithm SignatureAlgorithmIdentifier, signature Signature } SignatureAlgorithmIdentifier ::= AlgorithmIdentifier Signature ::= BIT STRING CertificationRequestInfo ::= SEQUENCE { version Version, subject Name, subjectPublicKeyInfo SubjectPublicKeyInfo, attributes [0] IMPLICIT Attributes } Attributes ::= SET OF Attribute

PKCS10
public PKCS10(X509Key publicKey)
Constructs an unsigned PKCS #10 certificate request. Before this request may be used, it must be encoded and signed. Then it must be retrieved in some conventional format (e.g. string).- Parameters:
publicKey
- the public key that should be placed into the certificate generated by the CA.
-
PKCS10
public PKCS10(X509Key publicKey, PKCS10Attributes attributes)
Constructs an unsigned PKCS #10 certificate request. Before this request may be used, it must be encoded and signed. Then it must be retrieved in some conventional format (e.g. string).- Parameters:
publicKey
- the public key that should be placed into the certificate generated by the CA.attributes
- additonal set of PKCS10 attributes requested for in the certificate.
-
PKCS10
public PKCS10(byte[] data, boolean sigver) throws java.io.IOException, java.security.SignatureException, java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException, java.security.NoSuchProviderException
Parses an encoded, signed PKCS #10 certificate request, verifying the request's signature as it does so. This constructor would typically be used by a Certificate Authority, from which a new certificate would then be constructed.- Parameters:
data
- the DER-encoded PKCS #10 request.sigver
- boolean specifies signature verification enabled or not- Throws:
java.io.IOException
- for low level errors reading the datajava.security.SignatureException
- when the signature is invalidjava.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException
- when the signature algorithm is not supported in this environmentjava.security.NoSuchProviderException
-

Method Detail

encodeAndSign
public void encodeAndSign(X500Signer requester) throws java.security.cert.CertificateException, java.io.IOException, java.security.SignatureException
Create the signed certificate request. This will later be retrieved in either string or binary format.- Parameters:
requester
- identifies the signer (by X.500 name) and provides the private key used to sign.- Throws:
java.io.IOException
- on errors.java.security.cert.CertificateException
- on certificate handling errors.java.security.SignatureException
- on signature handling errors.
-
getSubjectName
public X500Name getSubjectName()
Returns the subject's name.
-
getSubjectPublicKeyInfo
public X509Key getSubjectPublicKeyInfo()
Returns the subject's public key.
-
getAttributes
public PKCS10Attributes getAttributes()
Returns the additional attributes requested.
-
toByteArray
public byte[] toByteArray()
Returns the encoded and signed certificate request as a DER-encoded byte array.- Returns:
- the certificate request, or null if encodeAndSign() has not yet been called.
-
print
public void print(java.io.PrintStream out) throws java.io.IOException, java.security.SignatureException
Prints an E-Mailable version of the certificate request on the print stream passed. The format is a common base64 encoded one, supported by most Certificate Authorities because Netscape web servers have used this for some time. Some certificate authorities expect some more information, in particular contact information for the web server administrator.- Parameters:
out
- the print stream where the certificate request will be printed.- Throws:
java.io.IOException
- when an output operation failedjava.security.SignatureException
- when the certificate request was not yet signed.
-
toString
public java.lang.String toString()
Provides a short description of this request.- Overrides:

-
getCertRequestInfo
public byte[] getCertRequestInfo()
Retrieve the PKCS10 CertificateRequestInfo as a byte array
