java.security.cert
public class CertPathValidator extends Object
Using this class is similar to all the provider-based security
classes; the method of interest, validate(java.security.cert.CertPath,java.security.cert.CertPathParameters)
,
which takes provider-specific implementations of CertPathParameters
, and return provider-specific implementations of
CertPathValidatorResult
.
