ssl-proxies: Add information about chain to CertPathValidationException #91

Closed gbehrmann closed 11 years ago

gbehrmann commented 11 years ago

CertPathValidationException has fields to capture the CertPath and certificate index that triggered the validation failure. This allows an application to provide more information about the failure to the user. Yet, JGlobus didn't fill in these fields of the exception, meaning that the user would not be offered any information beyond a simple error message saying that the certificate was rejected.

This patch adds the missing information. An application still has to detect the exception in the exception cause chain and present it to the user in some form.

Paul, are you satisfied with the new patch.
