Generates a certificate revocation list (CRL) object and initializes it
with the data read from the input stream inStream.
[Android.Runtime.Register("generateCRL", "(Ljava/io/InputStream;)Ljava/security/cert/CRL;", "")]
public Java.Security.Cert.CRL? GenerateCRL (System.IO.Stream? inStream);[<Android.Runtime.Register("generateCRL", "(Ljava/io/InputStream;)Ljava/security/cert/CRL;", "")>]
member this.GenerateCRL : System.IO.Stream -> Java.Security.Cert.CRLParameters
- inStream
- Stream
an input stream with the CRL data.
Returns
a CRL object initialized with the data from the input stream.
- Attributes
Exceptions
if parsing problems are detected.
Remarks
Generates a certificate revocation list (CRL) object and initializes it with the data read from the input stream inStream.
In order to take advantage of the specialized CRL format supported by this certificate factory, the returned CRL object can be typecast to the corresponding CRL class. For example, if this certificate factory implements X.509 CRLs, the returned CRL object can be typecast to the X509CRL class.
Note that if the given input stream does not support java.io.InputStream#mark(int) mark and java.io.InputStream#reset() reset, this method will consume the entire input stream. Otherwise, each call to this method consumes one CRL and the read position of the input stream is positioned to the next available byte after the inherent end-of-CRL marker. If the data in the input stream does not contain an inherent end-of-CRL marker (other than EOF) and there is trailing data after the CRL is parsed, a CRLException is thrown.
