Class X509V1CertificateGenerator

public class X509V1CertificateGenerator extends Object

class to produce an X.509 Version 1 certificate.
Constructor Summary
X509V1CertificateGenerator()
Method Summary
X509Certificategenerate(PrivateKey key)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject using the default provider.
X509Certificategenerate(PrivateKey key, SecureRandom random)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject using the default provider and the passed in source of randomness

Note: this differs from the deprecated method in that the default provider is used - not "BC".

X509Certificategenerate(PrivateKey key, String provider)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject, using the passed in provider for the signing, and the passed in source of randomness (if required).
X509Certificategenerate(PrivateKey key, String provider, SecureRandom random)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject, using the passed in provider for the signing, and the passed in source of randomness (if required).
X509CertificategenerateX509Certificate(PrivateKey key)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject using the default provider "BC".
