hi,
the correct code for this purpose is
CertificateFactory certificateFactory =
CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");
// you can also explicitly specify the provider to use
// CertificateFactory certificateFactory =
CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509", "IAIK");
X509Certificate certificate = (X509Certificate)
certificateFactory.generateCertificate(new
ByteArrayInputStream(encodedCertificateByteArray));
i hope this is what you are looking for.
regards
Karl
