Class CertPathValidatorException
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable
 A CertPathValidatorException provides support for wrapping
 exceptions. The getCause method returns the throwable,
 if any, that caused this exception to be thrown.
 
 A CertPathValidatorException may also include the
 certification path that was being validated when the exception was thrown,
 the index of the certificate in the certification path that caused the
 exception to be thrown, and the reason that caused the failure. Use the
 getCertPath, getIndex, and
 getReason methods to retrieve this information.
 
Concurrent Access
Unless otherwise specified, the methods defined in this class are not thread-safe. Multiple threads that need to access a single object concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and provide the necessary locking. Multiple threads each manipulating separate objects need not synchronize.

Constructor Details- 
CertPathValidatorExceptionpublic CertPathValidatorException()Creates aCertPathValidatorExceptionwith no detail message.
- 
CertPathValidatorExceptionCreates aCertPathValidatorExceptionwith the given detail message. A detail message is aStringthat describes this particular exception.- Parameters:
- msg- the detail message
 
- 
CertPathValidatorExceptionCreates aCertPathValidatorExceptionthat wraps the specified throwable. This allows any exception to be converted into aCertPathValidatorException, while retaining information about the wrapped exception, which may be useful for debugging. The detail message is set to (cause==null ? null : cause.toString()) (which typically contains the class and detail message of cause).- Parameters:
- cause- the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the- getCause()method). (A- nullvalue is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
 
- 
CertPathValidatorExceptionCreates aCertPathValidatorExceptionwith the specified detail message and cause.- Parameters:
- msg- the detail message
- cause- the cause (which is saved for later retrieval by the- getCause()method). (A- nullvalue is permitted, and indicates that the cause is nonexistent or unknown.)
 
- 
CertPathValidatorExceptionCreates aCertPathValidatorExceptionwith the specified detail message, cause, certification path, and index.- Parameters:
- msg- the detail message (or- nullif none)
- cause- the cause (or- nullif none)
- certPath- the certification path that was in the process of being validated when the error was encountered
- index- the index of the certificate in the certification path that caused the error (or -1 if not applicable). Note that the list of certificates in a- CertPathis zero based.
- Throws:
- IndexOutOfBoundsException- if the index is out of range- (index < -1 || (certPath != null && index >= certPath.getCertificates().size())
- IllegalArgumentException- if- certPathis- nulland- indexis not -1
 
- 
CertPathValidatorExceptionpublic CertPathValidatorException(String msg, Throwable cause, CertPath certPath, int index, CertPathValidatorException.Reason reason) Creates aCertPathValidatorExceptionwith the specified detail message, cause, certification path, index, and reason.- Parameters:
- msg- the detail message (or- nullif none)
- cause- the cause (or- nullif none)
- certPath- the certification path that was in the process of being validated when the error was encountered
- index- the index of the certificate in the certification path that caused the error (or -1 if not applicable). Note that the list of certificates in a- CertPathis zero based.
- reason- the reason the validation failed
- Throws:
- IndexOutOfBoundsException- if the index is out of range- (index < -1 || (certPath != null && index >= certPath.getCertificates().size())
- IllegalArgumentException- if- certPathis- nulland- indexis not -1
- NullPointerException- if- reasonis- null

Method Details- 
getCertPathReturns the certification path that was being validated when the exception was thrown.- Returns:
- the CertPaththat was being validated when the exception was thrown (ornullif not specified)
 
- 
getIndexpublic int getIndex()Returns the index of the certificate in the certification path that caused the exception to be thrown. Note that the list of certificates in aCertPathis zero based. If no index has been set, -1 is returned.- Returns:
- the index that has been set, or -1 if none has been set
 
- 
getReasonReturns the reason that the validation failed. The reason is associated with the index of the certificate returned bygetIndex().- Returns:
- the reason that the validation failed, or
    BasicReason.UNSPECIFIEDif a reason has not been specified
