public class ocsp_response

extends ContentHandler

A content handler for OCSP responses/requests.

To use this content handler either install the corresponding OCSPContentHandlerFactory for your URLConnection or register this handler package by setting the System property java.content.handler.pkgs:

 
 HttpURLConnection.setContentHandlerFactory(new OCSPContentHandlerFactory());
 

or

 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();
 ...
