java.lang.Exception

iaik.x509.attr.TargetException

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class TargetException
extends java.lang.Exception

Exception to be thrown if a Target implementation is not be able to determine if a given server/service is a target for the attribute certificate that contains the particular Target extension. For instance, checking if a server/service belongs to some specific TargetGroup cannot be done in a general way because membership of a target to a TargetGroup only can be handled in application specfic manner (e.g., see RFC 5755: a TargetGroup may specify a DNS domain and the AC verifier knows the DNS domain to which it belongs; or the TargetGroup specifies "PRINTERS," and the AC verifier knows if it is a printer or print server or not). In such cases the isTargetFor check must be done in a different, application specific way.
