Method Detail

engineGetMatches

public Collection engineGetMatches(Selector selector)

Returns a collection of matching certificates from the LDAP location.

The subject and the serial number for end certificates should be reasonable criterias for a selector.

Parameters: selector The selector to use for finding.

Returns: A collection with the matches.

Throws: StoreException if an exception occurs while searching.
