The ASN.1 definition is as follows: *

 *   PolicyQualifierInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
 *        policyQualifierId       PolicyQualifierId,
 *        qualifier               ANY DEFINED BY policyQualifierId }
 * 
*

* A certificate policies extension, if present in an X.509 version 3 * certificate, contains a sequence of one or more policy information terms, * each of which consists of an object identifier (OID) and optional * qualifiers. In an end-entity certificate, these policy information terms * indicate the policy under which the certificate has been issued and the * purposes for which the certificate may be used. In a CA certificate, these * policy information terms limit the set of policies for certification paths * which include this certificate. *

* A Set of PolicyQualifierInfo objects are returned * by the {@link PolicyNode#getPolicyQualifiers PolicyNode.getPolicyQualifiers} * method. This allows applications with specific policy requirements to * process and validate each policy qualifier. Applications that need to * process policy qualifiers should explicitly set the * policyQualifiersRejected flag to false (by calling the * {@link PKIXParameters#setPolicyQualifiersRejected * PKIXParameters.setPolicyQualifiersRejected} method) before validating * a certification path. * *

Note that the PKIX certification path validation algorithm specifies * that any policy qualifier in a certificate policies extension that is * marked critical must be processed and validated. Otherwise the * certification path must be rejected. If the * policyQualifiersRejected flag is set to false, it is up to * the application to validate all policy qualifiers in this manner in order * to be PKIX compliant. * *

Concurrent Access * *

All PolicyQualifierInfo objects must be immutable and * thread-safe. That is, multiple threads may concurrently invoke the * methods defined in this class on a single PolicyQualifierInfo * object (or more than one) with no ill effects. Requiring * PolicyQualifierInfo objects to be immutable and thread-safe * allows them to be passed around to various pieces of code without * worrying about coordinating access. * * @author seth proctor * @author Sean Mullan * @version 1.11 12/19/03 * @since 1.4 */ public class PolicyQualifierInfo { private byte [] mEncoded; private String mId; private byte [] mData; private String pqiString; /** * Creates an instance of PolicyQualifierInfo from the * encoded bytes.
