- /**
- * <p>
- * Abstract class for X.509 certificates. This provides a standard
- * way to access all the attributes of an X.509 certificate.
- * <p>
- * In June of 1996, the basic X.509 v3 format was completed by
- * ISO/IEC and ANSI X9, which is described below in ASN.1:
- * <pre>
- * Certificate ::= SEQUENCE {
- * tbsCertificate TBSCertificate,
- * signatureAlgorithm AlgorithmIdentifier,
- * signature BIT STRING }
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * These certificates are widely used to support authentication and
- * other functionality in Internet security systems. Common applications
- * include Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM), Transport Layer Security (SSL),
- * code signing for trusted software distribution, and Secure Electronic
- * Transactions (SET).
- * <p>
- * These certificates are managed and vouched for by <em>Certificate
- * Authorities</em> (CAs). CAs are services which create certificates by
- * placing data in the X.509 standard format and then digitally signing
- * that data. CAs act as trusted third parties, making introductions
- * between principals who have no direct knowledge of each other.
- * CA certificates are either signed by themselves, or by some other
- * CA such as a "root" CA.
- * <p>
- * A good decription and profiling is provided in the IETF PKIX WG
- * draft, Part I: X.509 Certificate and CRL Profile,
- * <draft-ietf-pkix-ipki-part1-06.txt>.
- * <p>
- * The ASN.1 definition of <code>tbsCertificate</code> is:
- * <pre>
- * TBSCertificate ::= SEQUENCE {
- * version [0] EXPLICIT Version DEFAULT v1,
- * serialNumber CertificateSerialNumber,
- * signature AlgorithmIdentifier,
- * issuer Name,
- * validity Validity,
- * subject Name,
- * subjectPublicKeyInfo SubjectPublicKeyInfo,
- * issuerUniqueID [1] IMPLICIT UniqueIdentifier OPTIONAL,
- * -- If present, version must be v2 or v3
- * subjectUniqueID [2] IMPLICIT UniqueIdentifier OPTIONAL,
- * -- If present, version must be v2 or v3
- * extensions [3] EXPLICIT Extensions OPTIONAL
- * -- If present, version must be v3
- * }
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * Here is sample code to instantiate an X.509 certificate:
- * <pre>
- * InputStream inStream = new FileInputStream("fileName-of-cert");
- * X509Certificate cert = X509Certificate.getInstance(inStream);
- * inStream.close();
- * </pre>
- * OR
- * <pre>
- * byte[] certData = <certificate read from a file, say>
- * X509Certificate cert = X509Certificate.getInstance(certData);
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * In either case, the code that instantiates an X.509 certificate
- * consults the Java security properties file to locate the actual
- * implementation. The default implementation for the
- * <code>java.security.cert</code> package is the Sun X.509 v3
- * implementation, from what is known to the <code>java.security</code>
- * APIs as the "SUN" provider.
- *
- * <p>
- * The Java security properties file is located in the file named
- * <JAVA_HOME>/lib/security/java.security, where <JAVA_HOME>
- * refers to the directory where the JDK was installed.
- * In the Security properties file, the default implementation
- * for X.509 v3 is given as:
- * <pre>
- * cert.provider.x509=sun.security.x509.X509CertImpl
- * </pre>
- * <p>
- * The value of this <code>cert.provider.x509</code> property has to be
- * changed to instatiate another implementation.
