Method Detail

• isTrusted

  boolean isTrusted(X509Certificate[] chain,
                  String authType)
                    throws CertificateException

  Determines whether the certificate chain can be trusted without consulting the trust manager configured in the actual SSL context. This method can be used to override the standard JSSE certificate verification process.

  Please note that, if this method returns false, the trust manager configured in the actual SSL context can still clear the certificate as trusted.

  Parameters:

  chain - the peer certificate chain

  authType - the authentication type based on the client certificate

  Returns:

  true if the certificate can be trusted without verification by the trust manager, false otherwise.

  Throws:

  CertificateException - thrown if the certificate is not trusted or invalid.
