Note: use
X509CRLSelector.setIssuers(Collection) instead
or only specify the byte array form of distinguished names when using
this method. See
X509CRLSelector.addIssuerName(String)
for more information.
Sets the issuerNames criterion. The issuer distinguished name in the
X509CRL
must match at least one of the specified
distinguished names. If null
, any issuer distinguished name
will do.
This method allows the caller to specify, with a single method call,
the complete set of issuer names which X509CRLs
may contain.
The specified value replaces the previous value for the issuerNames
criterion.
The names
parameter (if not null
) is a
Collection
of names. Each name is a String
or a byte array representing a distinguished name (in RFC 2253 or
ASN.1 DER encoded form, respectively). If null
is supplied
as the value for this argument, no issuerNames check will be performed.
Note that the names
parameter can contain duplicate
distinguished names, but they may be removed from the
Collection
of names returned by the
getIssuerNames
method.
If a name is specified as a byte array, it should contain a single DER
encoded distinguished name, as defined in X.501. The ASN.1 notation for
this structure is as follows.
Name ::= CHOICE {
RDNSequence }
RDNSequence ::= SEQUENCE OF RelativeDistinguishedName
RelativeDistinguishedName ::=
SET SIZE (1 .. MAX) OF AttributeTypeAndValue
AttributeTypeAndValue ::= SEQUENCE {
type AttributeType,
value AttributeValue }
AttributeType ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER
AttributeValue ::= ANY DEFINED BY AttributeType
....
DirectoryString ::= CHOICE {
teletexString TeletexString (SIZE (1..MAX)),
printableString PrintableString (SIZE (1..MAX)),
universalString UniversalString (SIZE (1..MAX)),
utf8String UTF8String (SIZE (1.. MAX)),
bmpString BMPString (SIZE (1..MAX)) }
Note that a deep copy is performed on the Collection
to
protect against subsequent modifications.
Parameters:
- names - a Collection
of names (or null
)
Throws:
- IOException - if a parsing error occurs
