Method Detail

convertCert

public static X509Certificate convertCert(COM.claymoresystems.cert.X509Cert cert)
                                   throws GeneralSecurityException

Converts PureTLS specific X509 certificate object into standard Java X509 certificate object (right now it is using BouncyCastle provider to convert).

Parameters:

cert - PureTLS X509 certificate object

Returns:

standard Java X509 certificate object

Throws:

GeneralSecurityException - if conversion fails.

getX509Name

public static COM.claymoresystems.cert.X509Name getX509Name(String globusID)
                                                     throws Exception

Converts Globus formatted string into a X509Name object.

Parameters:

Globus - formatted subject to convert.

Returns:

the X509Name object.

Throws:

if - conversion fails.

getBase

public static COM.claymoresystems.cert.X509Name getBase(COM.claymoresystems.sslg.DistinguishedName name)

Deprecated. Only works with Globus legacy proxies.

Returns the base name of a proxy. Strips all "cn=proxy" or "cn=limited proxy" components.

checkProxyName

public static int checkProxyName(COM.claymoresystems.cert.X509Cert cert)

Deprecated. Only works for Globus legacy proxies.

Returns proxy name.

dupName

public static COM.claymoresystems.cert.X509Name dupName(COM.claymoresystems.sslg.DistinguishedName name)

Replicates a X509Name object.

Parameters:

name - X509Name object to replicate.

Returns:

the replicated object.

certificateChainToVector

public static Vector certificateChainToVector(X509Certificate[] certs)
                                       throws GeneralSecurityException

Converts standard Java X509 certificate array into a Vector of X509Cert objects (in the reverse order)

Parameters:

certs - certificate array to convert.

Returns:

the converted Vector of X509Cert objects.

Throws:

GeneralSecurityException - if conversion fails.

certificateChainToArray

public static X509Certificate[] certificateChainToArray(Vector chain)
                                                 throws GeneralSecurityException

Converts a Vector of X509Cert objects into a standard Java X509 certificate array (in the reverse order).

Parameters:

chain - the Vector of X509Cert objects to convert.

Returns:

the converted X509 certificate array

Throws:

GeneralSecurityException - if conversion fails.

getDefaultCertVerifyPolicy

public static COM.claymoresystems.sslg.CertVerifyPolicyInt getDefaultCertVerifyPolicy()

Returns a default certificate checking policy. This is not used as much as the certificate checking was mostly abstracted out from PureTLS code and moved into ProxyPathValidator.

Returns:

the default certificate checking policy.

getGlobusId

public static String getGlobusId(byte[] cert)
                          throws Exception

Returns the Globus formatted representation of the subject DN of the specified certificate.

Parameters:

cert - the encoded certificate

Returns:

the Globus formatted representation of the subject DN.

Throws:

Exception - if something goes wrong.
