override this.SetSubjectKeyIdentifier : byte[] -> unit

Parameters

subjectKeyID
Byte[]

the subject key identifier (or null)

Remarks

Sets the subjectKeyIdentifier criterion. The X509Certificate must contain a SubjectKeyIdentifier extension for which the contents of the extension matches the specified criterion value. If the criterion value is null, no subjectKeyIdentifier check will be done.

If subjectKeyID is not null, it should contain a single DER encoded value corresponding to the contents of the extension value (not including the object identifier, criticality setting, and encapsulating OCTET STRING) for a SubjectKeyIdentifier extension. The ASN.1 notation for this structure follows.

{@code
            SubjectKeyIdentifier ::= KeyIdentifier

            KeyIdentifier ::= OCTET STRING
            }

Since the format of subject key identifiers is not mandated by any standard, subject key identifiers are not parsed by the X509CertSelector. Instead, the values are compared using a byte-by-byte comparison.

Note that the byte array supplied here is cloned to protect against subsequent modifications.
