export
byte[] export(int option) throws GSSException
Exports this credential so that another process might import it. The exported credential might be imported again using theExtendedGSSManager.createCredential
method.- Parameters:
option
- The export type. If set toExtendedGSSCredential.IMPEXP_OPAQUE
exported buffer is an opaque buffer suitable for storage in memory or on disk or passing to another process. If set toExtendedGSSCredential.IMPEXP_MECH_SPECIFIC
exported buffer is a buffer filled with mechanism-specific information that the calling application can use to pass the credential to another process that is not written to the GSS-API.- Returns:
- The buffer containing the credential
- Throws:
GSSException
- containing the following major error codes:GSSException.CREDENTIAL_EXPIRED, GSSException.UNAVAILABLE, GSSException.FAILURE
