| X509CertSelector |
A CertSelector that selects X509Certificates that
match all specified criteria. |
|
A selector that defines a set of criteria for selecting
Certificates. Classes that implement this interface
are often used to specify which Certificates should
be retrieved from a CertStore.
Concurrent Access
Unless otherwise specified, the methods defined in this interface are not
thread-safe. Multiple threads that need to access a single
object concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and
provide the necessary locking. Multiple threads each manipulating
separate objects need not synchronize.
