public class CertificatePolicies
extends V3Extension
This class implements the CertificatePolicies Extension. 
 certificatePolicies ::= SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF PolicyInformation
 

 PolicyInformation ::= SEQUENCE {
      policyIdentifier   CertPolicyId,
      policyQualifiers   SEQUENCE SIZE (1..MAX) OF PolicyQualifierInfo OPTIONAL }
 

 CertPolicyId ::= OBJECT IDENTIFIER
 

 PolicyQualifierInfo ::= SEQUENCE {
      policyQualifierId   PolicyQualifierId,
      qualifier           ANY DEFINED BY policyQualifierId }
The certificate policies extension contains a sequence of policy information terms, each of which consists of an object identifier (OID) and optional qualifiers. These policy information terms indicate the policy under which the certificate has been issued and the purposes for which the certificate may be used. This profile strongly recommends that a simple OID be present in this field. Optional qualifiers which may be present are expected to provide information about obtaining CA rules, not change the definition of the policy. More information can be found in draft-ietf-pkix-ipki-part1-05.txt section 4.2.1.5 Certificate Policies.
