Enum Constant Detail

SIGNATURE

public static final X509FieldType SIGNATURE

The certificates signature.

SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM

public static final X509FieldType SIGNATURE_ALGORITHM

The algorithm used to sign the certificates.

TBS

public static final X509FieldType TBS

The to be signed fields of the certificate. These fields are used to generate the certificate signature.

Method Detail

values

public static X509FieldType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (X509FieldType c : X509FieldType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static X509FieldType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

getRfcName

public String getRfcName()

Gets the name of the field as defined by RFC5280.

Returns:

The name of the field as defined by RFC5280.

getDisplay

public String getDisplay()

Gets a human readable display name of the field.

Returns:

A human readable display name of the field.

getReferenceClass

public Class<? extends X509Field<?>> getReferenceClass()

Gets the class implementing the field type.

Returns:

The class implementing the field type.

getFieldToken

public String getFieldToken()

Gets the token of the field used in a lexicon parser.

Returns:

The token of the field used in a lexicon parser.

fromToken

public static X509FieldType fromToken(String token)

Gets the field type associated with a specific token string.

Parameters:

token - The token used to look up the X509FieldType.

Returns:

The X509FieldType associated with the token. If the token does not represent a known field, then null is returned.

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Enum<X509FieldType>
