Class CX509CertExtension

class CX509CertExtension : public CBase;

Description

A generic X.509 certificate extension.

The creation of a generic extension is the first step in the creation of a specific extension. Client code gets the decoded Object Identifier (OID) encapsulated by an instance of this class and uses it to create the specific extension.

Consists of an any-defined-by structure along with a boolean flag saying whether the extension is critical or not.

Derivation

• CBase - Base class for all classes to be instantiated on the heap

• CX509CertExtension - A generic X.509 certificate extension

static IMPORT_C CX509CertExtension *NewL(const CX509CertExtension &aExtension);

Description

Creates a new generic X.509 certificate extension object from an existing object.

This is equivalent to a copy constructor.

Parameters

const CX509CertExtension &aExtension The generic certificate extension to be copied.

Return value

CX509CertExtension * The new generic certificate extension object.

static IMPORT_C CX509CertExtension *NewLC(const CX509CertExtension &aExtension);

Description

Creates a new generic X.509 certificate extension object from an existing object, and puts a pointer to it onto the cleanup stack.

This is equivalent to a copy constructor.

Parameters

const CX509CertExtension &aExtension The generic certificate extension to be copied.

Return value

CX509CertExtension * The new generic X.509 certificate extension object.

static IMPORT_C CX509CertExtension *NewL(const TDesC8 &aBinaryData);

Description

Creates a new generic X.509 certificate extension object from the specified buffer containing the binary coded representation.

Parameters

const TDesC8 &aBinaryData The encoded binary representation.

Return value

CX509CertExtension * The new generic X.509 certificate extension object.

static IMPORT_C CX509CertExtension *NewLC(const TDesC8 &aBinaryData);

Description

Creates a new generic X.509 certificate extension object from the specified buffer containing the binary coded representation, and puts a pointer to it onto the cleanup stack .

Parameters

const TDesC8 &aBinaryData The encoded binary representation.

Return value

CX509CertExtension * The new generic X.509 certificate extension object.

static IMPORT_C CX509CertExtension *NewL(const TDesC8 &aBinaryData, TInt &aPos);

Description

Creates a new generic X.509 certificate extension object from the specified buffer containing the binary coded representation, starting at the specified offset.

Parameters

const TDesC8 &aBinaryData The encoded binary representation. TInt &aPos The offset position from which to start decoding.

Return value

CX509CertExtension * The new generic X.509 certificate extension object.

static IMPORT_C CX509CertExtension *NewLC(const TDesC8 &aBinaryData, TInt &aPos);

Description

Creates a new generic X.509 certificate extension object from the specified buffer containing the binary coded representation, starting at the specified offset, and puts a pointer to it onto the cleanup stack.

Parameters

const TDesC8 &aBinaryData The encoded binary representation. TInt &aPos The offset position from which to start decoding.

Return value

CX509CertExtension * The new generic X.509 certificate extension object.

IMPORT_C ~CX509CertExtension();

Description

Destructor.

Frees all resources owned by the object, prior to its destruction.

IMPORT_C TBool Critical() const;

Description

Tests whether certificate processing code must process this extension for certificate validation to succeed.

Return value

TBool ETrue, if this extension must be processed for validation to succeed; EFalse, otherwise.

IMPORT_C TPtrC Id() const;

Description

Gets the Object Identifier (OID) of the certficate extension.

Return value

TPtrC The OID of the certficate extension.

IMPORT_C TPtrC8 Data() const;

Description

Gets the encoded binary representation of the specific extension.

Return value

TPtrC8 A pointer descriptor representing the specific extension.
