  +--iaik.x509.ocsp.net.OCSPContentHandlerFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

ContentHandlerFactory

public class OCSPContentHandlerFactory

extends Object

implements ContentHandlerFactory

A content handler factory for OCSP responses/requests.

When installing this content handler factory for your URLConnection you may use the corresponding content handler for reading OCSP requests/responses from an URLConnection:

 
 HttpURLConnection.setContentHandlerFactory(new OCSPContentHandlerFactory());
 

Alternatively you immediately may register the content content handler setting the System property java.content.handler.pkgs:

 System.getProperties().put("java.content.handler.pkgs","iaik.x509.ocsp.net");
 

Registering this content handler (factory) allows you to call the getContent() method on an URLConnection object, e.g.:

 URL url = ...;
 HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection)url.openConnection();
 ...
 OCSPResponse ocspResponse = (OCSPResponse)con.getContent();
 ...
