Generate x509certificate certpath in JAVA

I successfully make X.509 certificate from certificate request.

However, I need to insert CERT Path informatin in the X.509 certificate.

I know that I have to use CertPathBuilder method but I don’t know how to use it.

could you give me an code example that suitable for the following code?

import java.io.FileInputStream;

Answer

The below code may help you

CertPathBuilder cpb = CertPathBuilder.getInstance("PKIX");
X509CertSelector certSelector = new X509CertSelector();
certSelector.setCertificate((X509Certificate) myKeyStore.getCertificate("mykey"));
PKIXBuilderParameters cpp = new PKIXBuilderParameters(trustAnchors, certSelector);
cpp.addCertStore(cs);
cpp.setRevocationEnabled(true);
cpp.setMaxPathLength(6);
cpp.setDate(new Date());

CertPathBuilderResult a = cpb.build(cpp);
CertPath certPath = a.getCertPath();
