@Deprecated public abstract class Identity extends Object implements Principal, Serializable
This class represents identities: real-world objects such as people, companies or organizations whose identities can be authenticated using their public keys. Identities may also be more abstract (or concrete) constructs, such as daemon threads or smart cards.
All Identity objects have a name and a public key. Names are immutable. Identities may also be scoped. That is, if an Identity is specified to have a particular scope, then the name and public key of the Identity are unique within that scope.
An Identity also has a set of certificates (all certifying its own public key). The Principal names specified in these certificates need not be the same, only the key.
An Identity can be subclassed, to include postal and email addresses, telephone numbers, images of faces and logos, and so on.

Identity
public Identity(String name, IdentityScope scope) throws KeyManagementException
Deprecated.Constructs an identity with the specified name and scope.- Parameters:
name
- the identity name.scope
- the scope of the identity.- Throws:
KeyManagementException
- if there is already an identity with the same name in the scope.
-
Identity
public Identity(String name)
Deprecated.Constructs an identity with the specified name and no scope.- Parameters:
name
- the identity name.
-
-
Method Detail
-
getName
public final String getName()
Deprecated.Returns this identity's name.
-
getScope
public final IdentityScope getScope()
Deprecated.Returns this identity's scope.- Returns:
- the scope of this identity.
-
getPublicKey
public PublicKey getPublicKey()
Deprecated.Returns this identity's public key.- Returns:
- the public key for this identity.
- See Also:
setPublicKey(java.security.PublicKey)
-
setPublicKey
public void setPublicKey(PublicKey key) throws KeyManagementException
Deprecated.Sets this identity's public key. The old key and all of this identity's certificates are removed by this operation.First, if there is a security manager, its
checkSecurityAccess
method is called with"setIdentityPublicKey"
as its argument to see if it's ok to set the public key.- Parameters:
key
- the public key for this identity.- Throws:
KeyManagementException
- if another identity in the identity's scope has the same public key, or if another exception occurs.SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and itscheckSecurityAccess
method doesn't allow setting the public key.- See Also:
getPublicKey()
,SecurityManager.checkSecurityAccess(java.lang.String)
-
setInfo
public void setInfo(String info)
Deprecated.Specifies a general information string for this identity.First, if there is a security manager, its
checkSecurityAccess
method is called with"setIdentityInfo"
as its argument to see if it's ok to specify the information string.- Parameters:
info
- the information string.- Throws:
SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and itscheckSecurityAccess
method doesn't allow setting the information string.- See Also:
getInfo()
,SecurityManager.checkSecurityAccess(java.lang.String)
-
getInfo
public String getInfo()
Deprecated.Returns general information previously specified for this identity.- Returns:
- general information about this identity.
- See Also:
setInfo(java.lang.String)
-
addCertificate
public void addCertificate(Certificate certificate) throws KeyManagementException
Deprecated.Adds a certificate for this identity. If the identity has a public key, the public key in the certificate must be the same, and if the identity does not have a public key, the identity's public key is set to be that specified in the certificate.First, if there is a security manager, its
checkSecurityAccess
method is called with"addIdentityCertificate"
as its argument to see if it's ok to add a certificate.- Parameters:
certificate
- the certificate to be added.- Throws:
KeyManagementException
- if the certificate is not valid, if the public key in the certificate being added conflicts with this identity's public key, or if another exception occurs.SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and itscheckSecurityAccess
method doesn't allow adding a certificate.- See Also:
SecurityManager.checkSecurityAccess(java.lang.String)
-
removeCertificate
public void removeCertificate(Certificate certificate) throws KeyManagementException
Deprecated.Removes a certificate from this identity.First, if there is a security manager, its
checkSecurityAccess
method is called with"removeIdentityCertificate"
as its argument to see if it's ok to remove a certificate.- Parameters:
certificate
- the certificate to be removed.- Throws:
KeyManagementException
- if the certificate is missing, or if another exception occurs.SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and itscheckSecurityAccess
method doesn't allow removing a certificate.- See Also:
SecurityManager.checkSecurityAccess(java.lang.String)
-
certificates
public Certificate[] certificates()
Deprecated.Returns a copy of all the certificates for this identity.- Returns:
- a copy of all the certificates for this identity.
-
equals
public final boolean equals(Object identity)
Deprecated.Tests for equality between the specified object and this identity. This first tests to see if the entities actually refer to the same object, in which case it returns true. Next, it checks to see if the entities have the same name and the same scope. If they do, the method returns true. Otherwise, it callsidentityEquals
, which subclasses should override.- Specified by:
equals
in interfacePrincipal
- Overrides:
equals
in classObject
- Parameters:
identity
- the object to test for equality with this identity.- Returns:
- true if the objects are considered equal, false otherwise.
- See Also:
identityEquals(java.security.Identity)
-
identityEquals
protected boolean identityEquals(Identity identity)
Deprecated.Tests for equality between the specified identity and this identity. This method should be overriden by subclasses to test for equality. The default behavior is to return true if the names and public keys are equal.- Parameters:
identity
- the identity to test for equality with this identity.- Returns:
- true if the identities are considered equal, false otherwise.
- See Also:
equals(java.lang.Object)
-
toString
public String toString()
Deprecated.Returns a short string describing this identity, telling its name and its scope (if any).First, if there is a security manager, its
checkSecurityAccess
method is called with"printIdentity"
as its argument to see if it's ok to return the string.- Specified by:
toString
in interfacePrincipal
- Overrides:
toString
in classObject
- Returns:
- information about this identity, such as its name and the name of its scope (if any).
- Throws:
SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and itscheckSecurityAccess
method doesn't allow returning a string describing this identity.- See Also:
SecurityManager.checkSecurityAccess(java.lang.String)
-
toString
public String toString(boolean detailed)
Deprecated.Returns a string representation of this identity, with optionally more details than that provided by thetoString
method without any arguments.First, if there is a security manager, its
checkSecurityAccess
method is called with"printIdentity"
as its argument to see if it's ok to return the string.- Parameters:
detailed
- whether or not to provide detailed information.- Returns:
- information about this identity. If
detailed
is true, then this method returns more information than that provided by thetoString
method without any arguments. - Throws:
SecurityException
- if a security manager exists and itscheckSecurityAccess
method doesn't allow returning a string describing this identity.- See Also:
