Summary

Public Constructors
X509V1CertificateGenerator()
Public Methods
X509Certificate generate(PrivateKey key, String provider)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject, using the passed in provider for the signing, and the passed in source of randomness (if required).
X509Certificate generate(PrivateKey key)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject using the default provider.
X509Certificate generate(PrivateKey key, SecureRandom random)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject using the default provider and the passed in source of randomness

Note: this differs from the deprecated method in that the default provider is used - not "BC".

X509Certificate generate(PrivateKey key, String provider, SecureRandom random)
generate an X509 certificate, based on the current issuer and subject, using the passed in provider for the signing, and the passed in source of randomness (if required).
