Interface X509IssuerSerial
- All Superinterfaces:
- XMLStructure
public interface X509IssuerSerial - extends XMLStructure
A representation of the XML X509IssuerSerial element as
defined in the
W3C Recommendation for XML-Signature Syntax and Processing.
An X509IssuerSerial object contains an X.509 issuer
distinguished name (DN) and serial number pair. The XML schema definition is
defined as:
<element name="X509IssuerSerial" type="ds:X509IssuerSerialType"/>
<complexType name="X509IssuerSerialType">
<sequence>
<element name="X509IssuerName" type="string"/>
<element name="X509SerialNumber" type="integer"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
An X509IssuerSerial instance may be created by invoking the
newX509IssuerSerial method
of the KeyInfoFactory class, and passing it a
String and BigInteger representing the X.500
DN and serial number. Here is an example of creating an
X509IssuerSerial from the issuer DN and serial number of an
existing X509Certificate:
KeyInfoFactory factory = KeyInfoFactory.getInstance("DOM");
X509IssuerSerial issuer = factory.newX509IssuerSerial
(cert.getIssuerX500Principal().getName(), cert.getSerialNumber());
