Constructor Detail

DistributionPoint

public DistributionPoint()

Creates a new instance with no data. While RFC 2459 technically allows this, it is meaningless to do so.

DistributionPoint

public DistributionPoint(String relativeName,
                         ReasonFlags flags,
                         GeneralNameList issuer)

Creates a new instance where the distribution point is known by a name relative to the CRL issuer name(s).

Parameters:

relativeName - Name relative to CRL issuer.

flags - Revocation reasons supported by CRL distribution point.

issuer - CRL issuer name(s); cannot be null in this case since this is required to give a basis for the relative name.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - When issuer is null.

DistributionPoint

public DistributionPoint(GeneralNameList names,
                         ReasonFlags flags,

Creates a new instance with the given data.

Parameters:

names - Name(s) by which CRL distribution point is known.
