implements CertPathBuilderResult
This class represents the successful result of the PKIX certification path builder algorithm. All certification paths that are built and returned using this algorithm are also validated according to the PKIX certification path validation algorithm.
Instances of PKIXCertPathBuilderResult
are returned by
the build
method of CertPathBuilder
objects implementing the PKIX algorithm.
All PKIXCertPathBuilderResult
objects contain the
certification path constructed by the build algorithm, the
valid policy tree and subject public key resulting from the build
algorithm, and a TrustAnchor
describing the certification
authority (CA) that served as a trust anchor for the certification path.
Concurrent Access
Unless otherwise specified, the methods defined in this class 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.

Public Methods
public CertPath getCertPath ()
Returns the built and validated certification path. The
CertPath
object does not include the trust anchor.
Instead, use the getTrustAnchor()
method to
obtain the TrustAnchor
that served as the trust anchor
for the certification path.
Returns
- the built and validated
CertPath
(nevernull
