e229. Creating a Certification Path

This example demonstrates how to create a CertPath object from an list of certificates. 
    // The CA's certificate should be the last element in the array
    public static CertPath createCertPath(java.security.cert.Certificate[] certs) {
        try {
            CertificateFactory certFact = CertificateFactory.getInstance("X.509");
            CertPath path = certFact.generateCertPath(Arrays.asList(certs));
            return path;
        } catch (java.security.cert.CertificateEncodingException e) {
        } catch (CertificateException e) {
        }
        return null;
    }
