Class KeyStore.Builder

  • Enclosing class:
    KeyStore


    public abstract static class KeyStore.Builder
    extends Object
    A description of a to-be-instantiated KeyStore object.

    An instance of this class encapsulates the information needed to instantiate and initialize a KeyStore object. That process is triggered when the getKeyStore() method is called.

    This makes it possible to decouple configuration from KeyStore object creation and e.g. delay a password prompt until it is needed.

      • getKeyStore

        public abstract KeyStore getKeyStore()
                                      throws KeyStoreException
        Returns the KeyStore described by this object.
        Returns:
        the KeyStore described by this object
        Throws:
        KeyStoreException - if an error occurred during the operation, for example if the KeyStore could not be instantiated or loaded
      • getProtectionParameter

        public abstract KeyStore.ProtectionParameter getProtectionParameter(String alias)
                                                                     throws KeyStoreException
        Returns the ProtectionParameters that should be used to obtain the Entry with the given alias. The getKeyStore method must be invoked before this method may be called.
        Parameters:
        alias - the alias of the KeyStore entry
        Returns:
        the ProtectionParameters that should be used to obtain the Entry with the given alias.
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if alias is null
        KeyStoreException - if an error occurred during the operation
        IllegalStateException - if the getKeyStore method has not been invoked prior to calling this method
      • newInstance

        public static KeyStore.Builder newInstance(KeyStore keyStore,
                                                   KeyStore.ProtectionParameter protectionParameter)
        Returns a new Builder that encapsulates the given KeyStore. The getKeyStore() method of the returned object will return keyStore, the getProtectionParameter() method will return protectionParameters.

        This is useful if an existing KeyStore object needs to be used with Builder-based APIs.

        Parameters:
        keyStore - the KeyStore to be encapsulated
        protectionParameter - the ProtectionParameter used to protect the KeyStore entries
        Returns:
        a new Builder object
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if keyStore or protectionParameters is null
        IllegalArgumentException - if the keyStore has not been initialized
      • newInstance

        public static KeyStore.Builder newInstance(String type,
                                                   Provider provider,
                                                   File file,
                                                   KeyStore.ProtectionParameter protection)
        Returns a new Builder object.

        The first call to the getKeyStore() method on the returned builder will create a KeyStore of type type and call its load() method. The inputStream argument is constructed from file. If protection is a PasswordProtection, the password is obtained by calling the getPassword method. Otherwise, if protection is a CallbackHandlerProtection, the password is obtained by invoking the CallbackHandler.

        Subsequent calls to getKeyStore() return the same object as the initial call. If the initial call to failed with a KeyStoreException, subsequent calls also throw a KeyStoreException.

        The KeyStore is instantiated from provider if non-null. Otherwise, all installed providers are searched.

        Calls to getProtectionParameter() will return a PasswordProtection object encapsulating the password that was used to invoke the load method.

        Note that the getKeyStore() method is executed within the AccessControlContext of the code invoking this method.

        Parameters:
        type - the type of KeyStore to be constructed
        provider - the provider from which the KeyStore is to be instantiated (or null)
        file - the File that contains the KeyStore data
        protection - the ProtectionParameter securing the KeyStore data
        Returns:
        a new Builder object
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if type, file or protection is null
        IllegalArgumentException - if protection is not an instance of either PasswordProtection or CallbackHandlerProtection; or if file does not exist or does not refer to a normal file
      • newInstance

        public static KeyStore.Builder newInstance(String type,
                                                   Provider provider,
                                                   KeyStore.ProtectionParameter protection)
        Returns a new Builder object.

        Each call to the getKeyStore() method on the returned builder will return a new KeyStore object of type type. Its load() method is invoked using a LoadStoreParameter that encapsulates protection.

        The KeyStore is instantiated from provider if non-null. Otherwise, all installed providers are searched.

        Calls to getProtectionParameter() will return protection.

        Note that the getKeyStore() method is executed within the AccessControlContext of the code invoking this method.

        Parameters:
        type - the type of KeyStore to be constructed
        provider - the provider from which the KeyStore is to be instantiated (or null)
        protection - the ProtectionParameter securing the Keystore
        Returns:
        a new Builder object
        Throws:
        NullPointerException - if type or protection is null
