extends GeneralNames

Extension IssuerAltName.

Documentation from RFC 3280:

As with 4.2.1.7 (see SubjectAltName), this extension is used to associate Internet style identities with the certificate issuer. Issuer alternative names MUST be encoded as in 4.2.1.7.

Where present, this extension SHOULD NOT be marked critical.

ASN.1 definitions:

   id-ce-issuerAltName OBJECT IDENTIFIER ::=  { id-ce 18 }

   IssuerAltName ::= GeneralNames

Method Detail

getInstance

public static IssuerAltName getInstance(java.lang.Object obj)

Returns a new instance from an ASN1Sequence, or a GeneralNames, or a IssuerAltName object.

getInstance

public static IssuerAltName getInstance(org.bouncycastle.asn1.ASN1TaggedObject obj,
                                        boolean explicit)
