                                 UnrecoverableKeyException
Returns the key associated with the given alias, using the given password to recover it. The key must have been associated with the alias by a call to setKeyEntry, or by a call to setEntry with a PrivateKeyEntry or SecretKeyEntry.

Parameters:
alias - the alias name
password - the password for recovering the key
Returns:
the requested key, or null if the given alias does not exist or does not identify a key-related entry.
Throws:
NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the algorithm for recovering the key cannot be found
UnrecoverableKeyException - if the key cannot be recovered (e.g., the given password is wrong).

engineGetCertificateChain

engineGetCertificate

public abstract Certificate engineGetCertificate(String alias)
Returns the certificate associated with the given alias.

If the given alias name identifies an entry created by a call to setCertificateEntry, or created by a call to setEntry with a TrustedCertificateEntry, then the trusted certificate contained in that entry is returned.

If the given alias name identifies an entry created by a call to setKeyEntry, or created by a call to setEntry with a PrivateKeyEntry, then the first element of the certificate chain in that entry (if a chain exists) is returned.

Parameters:

Returns:
the certificate, or null if the given alias does not exist or does not contain a certificate.

engineGetCreationDate

public abstract Date engineGetCreationDate(String alias)
Returns the creation date of the entry identified by the given alias.

Parameters:

Returns:
the creation date of this entry, or null if the given alias does not exist

engineSetKeyEntry

public abstract void engineSetKeyEntry(String alias,
                                       Key key,

                                throws KeyStoreException
Assigns the given key to the given alias, protecting it with the given password.

If the given key is of type java.security.PrivateKey, it must be accompanied by a certificate chain certifying the corresponding public key.

Parameters:
alias - the alias name
key - the key to be associated with the alias
password - the password to protect the key
chain - the certificate chain for the corresponding public key (only required if the given key is of type java.security.PrivateKey).
Throws:

                                throws KeyStoreException
Assigns the given key (that has already been protected) to the given alias.

If the protected key is of type java.security.PrivateKey, it must be accompanied by a certificate chain certifying the corresponding public key.

If the given alias already exists, the keystore information associated with it is overridden by the given key (and possibly certificate chain).

Parameters:

                                        throws KeyStoreException
Assigns the given certificate to the given alias.

If the given alias identifies an existing entry created by a call to setCertificateEntry, or created by a call to setEntry with a TrustedCertificateEntry, the trusted certificate in the existing entry is overridden by the given certificate.

Returns:
true if the entry identified by the given alias contains a trusted certificate, false otherwise.

engineGetCertificateAlias

public abstract String engineGetCertificateAlias(Certificate cert)
Returns the (alias) name of the first keystore entry whose certificate matches the given certificate.

This method attempts to match the given certificate with each keystore entry. If the entry being considered was created by a call to setCertificateEntry, or created by a call to setEntry with a TrustedCertificateEntry, then the given certificate is compared to that entry's certificate.

If the entry being considered was created by a call to setKeyEntry, or created by a call to setEntry with a PrivateKeyEntry, then the given certificate is compared to the first element of that entry's certificate chain.

Parameters:
cert - the certificate to match with.
Returns:
the alias name of the first entry with matching certificate, or null if no such entry exists in this keystore.

engineStore

public abstract void engineStore(OutputStream stream,

Stores this keystore to the given output stream, and protects its integrity with the given password.

Parameters:
stream - the output stream to which this keystore is written.
password - the password to generate the keystore integrity check

public void engineStore(KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter param)
                 throws IOException,
                        NoSuchAlgorithmException,

Stores this keystore using the given KeyStore.LoadStoreParmeter.

Parameters:
param - the KeyStore.LoadStoreParmeter that specifies how to store the keystore, which may be null
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the given KeyStore.LoadStoreParmeter input is not recognized
IOException - if there was an I/O problem with data
NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the appropriate data integrity algorithm could not be found
CertificateException - if any of the certificates included in the keystore data could not be stored

                                CertificateException
Loads the keystore from the given input stream.

A password may be given to unlock the keystore (e.g. the keystore resides on a hardware token device), or to check the integrity of the keystore data. If a password is not given for integrity checking, then integrity checking is not performed.

Parameters:
stream - the input stream from which the keystore is loaded, or null
password - the password used to check the integrity of the keystore, the password used to unlock the keystore, or null
Throws:
IOException - if there is an I/O or format problem with the keystore data, if a password is required but not given, or if the given password was incorrect. If the error is due to a wrong password, the cause of the IOException should be an UnrecoverableKeyException
NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the algorithm used to check the integrity of the keystore cannot be found
CertificateException - if any of the certificates in the keystore could not be loaded

engineLoad

public void engineLoad(KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter param)

Loads the keystore using the given KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter.

Note that if this KeyStore has already been loaded, it is reinitialized and loaded again from the given parameter.

Parameters:
param - the KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter that specifies how to load the keystore, which may be null
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if the given KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter input is not recognized

NoSuchAlgorithmException - if the algorithm used to check the integrity of the keystore cannot be found
CertificateException - if any of the certificates in the keystore could not be loaded
Since:
1.5
