public abstract class CertPath extends Object implements Serializable
cert.getType().equals(certpath.getType())
will return true.
Since this class is immutable, it is thread-safe. During serialization,
the path is consolidated into a CertPath.CertPathRep
, which preserves the
data regardless of the underlying implementation of the path.

boolean |
equals(Object o)
Compares this path to another for semantic equality.
|
abstract List |
getCertificates()
Returns the immutable, thread-safe list of certificates in this path.
|
abstract byte[] |
getEncoded()
Returns the encoded form of this path, via the default encoding.
|
abstract byte[] |
getEncoded(String encoding)
Returns the encoded form of this path, via the specified encoding.
|
abstract Iterator |
getEncodings()
Get an immutable iterator over the path encodings (all String names),
starting with the default encoding.
|
String |
getType()
Get the (non-null) type of all certificates in the path.
|
int |
hashCode()
Returns the hashcode of this certificate path.
|
String |
toString()
Default String representation: overriden by many classes.
|
protected Object |
writeReplace()
Serializes the path in its encoded form, to ensure reserialization with
the appropriate factory object without worrying about list implementation.
