Remarks

This class represents identities: real-world objects such as people, companies or organizations whose identities can be authenticated using their public keys. Identities may also be more abstract (or concrete) constructs, such as daemon threads or smart cards.

All Identity objects have a name and a public key. Names are immutable. Identities may also be scoped. That is, if an Identity is specified to have a particular scope, then the name and public key of the Identity are unique within that scope.

An Identity also has a set of certificates (all certifying its own public key). The Principal names specified in these certificates need not be the same, only the key.

An Identity can be subclassed, to include postal and email addresses, telephone numbers, images of faces and logos, and so on.

Added in 1.1.

This member is deprecated. This class is deprecated and subject to removal in a future version of Java SE. It has been replaced by java.security.KeyStore, the java.security.cert package, and java.security.Principal.

Constructors

Identity()	Obsolete. Constructor for serialization only.
Identity(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)	A constructor used when creating managed representations of JNI objects; called by the runtime.
Identity(String, IdentityScope)	Obsolete. Constructs an identity with the specified name and scope.
Identity(String)	Obsolete. Constructs an identity with the specified name and no scope.

Properties

Class	Returns the runtime class of this Object. (Inherited from Object)
Handle	The handle to the underlying Android instance. (Inherited from Object)
Info	Obsolete. Returns general information previously specified for this identity. -or- Specifies a general information string for this identity.
JniIdentityHashCode	(Inherited from Object)
JniPeerMembers
Name	Obsolete. Returns this identity's name.
PeerReference	(Inherited from Object)
PublicKey	Obsolete. Returns this identity's public key. -or- Sets this identity's public key.
Scope	Obsolete. Returns this identity's scope.
ThresholdClass	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.
ThresholdType	This API supports the Mono for Android infrastructure and is not intended to be used directly from your code.

Methods

AddCertificate(ICertificate)	Obsolete. Adds a certificate for this identity.
Certificates()	Obsolete. Returns a copy of all the certificates for this identity.
Clone()	Creates and returns a copy of this object. (Inherited from Object)
Dispose()	(Inherited from Object)
Dispose(Boolean)	(Inherited from Object)
Equals(Object)	Obsolete. Tests for equality between the specified object and this identity.
GetHashCode()	Returns a hash code value for the object. (Inherited from Object)
IdentityEquals(Identity)	Obsolete. Tests for equality between the specified identity and this identity.
JavaFinalize()	Called by the garbage collector on an object when garbage collection determines that there are no more references to the object. (Inherited from Object)
Notify()	Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor. (Inherited from Object)
NotifyAll()	Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. (Inherited from Object)
RemoveCertificate(ICertificate)	Obsolete. Removes a certificate from this identity.
SetHandle(IntPtr, JniHandleOwnership)	Sets the Handle property. (Inherited from Object)
ToArray<T>()	(Inherited from Object)
ToString()	Returns a string representation of the object. (Inherited from Object)
ToString(Boolean)	Obsolete. Returns a string representation of this identity, with optionally more details than that provided by the toString method without any arguments.
UnregisterFromRuntime()	(Inherited from Object)
Wait()	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>. (Inherited from Object)
Wait(Int64, Int32)	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. (Inherited from Object)
Wait(Int64)	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being <em>notified</em> or <em>interrupted</em>, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed. (Inherited from Object)
