Summary
Inherited methods |
From class java.lang.Object Object | clone() Creates and returns a copy of this object. | boolean | equals(Object obj) Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one. | void | finalize() Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. | final Class<?> | getClass() Returns the runtime class of this Object. | int | hashCode() Returns a hash code value for the object. | final void | notify() Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. | final void | notifyAll() Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. | String | toString() Returns a string representation of the object. | final void | wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. | final void | wait(long timeoutMillis) Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. | final void | wait() Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted. | |

Public methods
acceptableCountryWildcard
public static boolean acceptableCountryWildcard (String cn)
countDots
public static int countDots (String s)
Counts the number of dots "." in a string.
| Parameters |
s | String: string to count dots from |
| Returns |
int | number of dots |
getDNSSubjectAlts
public static String[] getDNSSubjectAlts (X509Certificate cert)
Extracts the array of SubjectAlt DNS names from an X509Certificate. Returns null if there aren't any.
Note: Java doesn't appear able to extract international characters from the SubjectAlts. It can only extract international characters from the CN field.
(Or maybe the version of OpenSSL I'm using to test isn't storing the international characters correctly in the SubjectAlts?).
| Parameters |
cert | X509Certificate: X509Certificate |
| Returns |
String[] | Array of SubjectALT DNS names stored in the certificate. |
verify
public final void verify (String host, String[] cns, String[] subjectAlts, boolean strictWithSubDomains)
| Parameters |
host | String |
cns | String |
subjectAlts | String |
strictWithSubDomains | boolean |
verify
public final void verify (String host, SSLSocket ssl)
| Parameters |
host | String |
ssl | SSLSocket |
verify
public final void verify (String host, X509Certificate cert)
| Parameters |
host | String |
cert | X509Certificate |
verify
public final boolean verify (String host, SSLSession session)
Verify that the host name is an acceptable match with the server's authentication scheme.
| Parameters |
host | String: the host name |
session | SSLSession: SSLSession used on the connection to host |
| Returns |
boolean | true if the host name is acceptable |
