Detailed Description

This class represents a DistinguishedName, similar to the Java type X500Principal and the .NET type X500DistinguishedName.

For comparison purposes, the value of a relative distinguished name (RDN) component is always unescaped before matching, therefore "ZeroC, Inc." will match ZeroC\, Inc.

toString() always returns exactly the same information as was provided in the constructor (i.e., "ZeroC, Inc." will not turn into ZeroC\, Inc.).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DistinguishedName() [1/2]

IceSSL::DistinguishedName::DistinguishedName ( const std::string &  name )

explicit

Creates a DistinguishedName from a string encoded using the rules in RFC2253.

Parameters

name	The encoded distinguished name.

Exceptions

ParseException

if parsing fails.

DistinguishedName() [2/2]

IceSSL::DistinguishedName::DistinguishedName ( const std::list< std::pair< std::string, std::string > > &  )

explicit

Creates a DistinguishedName from a list of RDN pairs, where each pair consists of the RDN's type and value.

For example, the RDN "O=ZeroC" is represented by the pair ("O", "ZeroC").

Exceptions

ParseException

if parsing fails.

Member Function Documentation

match() [1/2]

bool IceSSL::DistinguishedName::match

(

const DistinguishedName &

dn

)

const

Performs a partial match with another DistinguishedName.

Parameters

dn	The name to be matched.

Returns

True if all of the RDNs in the argument are present in this DistinguishedName and they have the same values.

match() [2/2]

bool IceSSL::DistinguishedName::match

(

const std::string &

dn

)

const

Performs a partial match with another DistinguishedName.

Parameters

dn	The name to be matched.

Returns

True if all of the RDNs in the argument are present in this DistinguishedName and they have the same values.

Friends And Related Function Documentation

operator<

bool operator< ( const DistinguishedName &  , const DistinguishedName &    )

friend

Performs an exact match.

The order of the RDN components is important.

operator==

bool operator== ( const DistinguishedName &  , const DistinguishedName &    )

friend

Performs an exact match.

The order of the RDN components is important.
