[jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Hi, I need to do the equivalent of this in JRuby:-- PKCS10CertificationRequest csr = csrBuilder.build(signer); Which equates to what I think is casting a "org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequestHolder" object to a "org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequest" object. Is this possible? Regards, Carl - To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
There's no casting (in the usual Java sense) required in JRuby; if the methods exist, they'll be callable. Just go with it :) - Charlie On Wed, Oct 17, 2012 at 1:08 PM, Carl Bourne wrote: > Hi, > > I need to do the equivalent of this in JRuby:-- > > PKCS10CertificationRequest csr = csrBuilder.build(signer); > > Which equates to what I think is casting a > "org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequestHolder" object to a > "org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequest" object. > > Is this possible? > > Regards, > > Carl > > - > To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: > > http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email > > - To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Charles, Maybe I'm getting my terminology mixed up here. I basically have two different types of object . >> PKCS10CertificationRequestHolder and a >> PKCS10CertificationRequest In order for me to pass the holder object to another class the holder object needs to be just a request object as per my Java example. I may be missing something obvious here, but how would I do this in JRuby?

Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Yes, I think I was confused by your terminology. Assuming the original Java code is right, here's the Ruby code: csr = csrBuilder.build(signer) - Charlie On Wed, Oct 17, 2012 at 2:03 PM, Carl Bourne wrote: > Charles, > > Maybe I'm getting my terminology mixed up here. > > I basically have two different types of object . > >>> PKCS10CertificationRequestHolder and a >>> PKCS10CertificationRequest > > In order for me to pass the holder object to another class the holder object > needs to be just a request object as per my Java example.

Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Oliver yes I did try that but it still doesn't seem to work as I would expect.
Heres a bit more background to the problem.
Using this Java code:
// Generate the certificate signing request
PKCS10CertificationRequestBuilder csrBuilder = new
PKCS10CertificationRequestBuilder(entityName, publicKeyInfo);
csrBuilder.addAttribute(PKCSObjectIdentifiers.pkcs_9_at_challengePassword, new
DERPrintableString(new String("lexicon".toCharArray(;
ContentSigner signer = signerBuilder.build(entityPair.getPrivate());
PKCS10CertificationRequest csr = csrBuilder.build(signer);
System.out.println(csr);
It returns this:
org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequest@ba259522
However when I try to do the same using JRuby with this code:
// Generate the certificate signing request
csrbuilder = PKCS10CertificationRequestBuilder.new(entityname, publickeyinfo )
password = String.new("password").toCharArray
csrbuilder.addAttribute(PKCSObjectIdentifiers::pkcs_9_at_challengePassword,
DERPrintableString.new(String.new(password)))
signer = signerbuilder.build(entitypair.getPrivate)
csr = csrbuilder.build(signer)
puts csr
It returns this:
org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequestHolder@c06a2100
Instead of returning org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequest object.

Well that's very strange. Since you obviously have all the right types
up to the last build call, perhaps it's choosing the wrong build()
method? Is there one that returns a holder?
Oh, another thought...perhaps you're picking up JRuby's built-in
BouncyCastle, which is a bit older than the most recent version and
may have API differences? Perhaps build returns a "Holder" in our
version of BC?

Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Charles,
Indeed it seems to be an issue with JRuby 1.7 RC2 and maybe the included BC
libraries.
If switch back to JRuby 1.6 I get the expected result.
org.bouncycastle.pkcs.PKCS10CertificationRequest@206b4e2
Is there an easy way to exclude the included BC libraries?
Regards,
Carl

Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
when I used jruby-core maven artifact and replaced the bouncy-castle artifact the built in SSL support of jruby did not work any more. maybe the build SSL support of jruby s of no importance for you then that is way to go. - Kristian - To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Thanks Kristian, Unfortunately I will need to use the SSL support! Any other work arounds be greatly appreciated.

Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
jruby NEEDS the slightly older version of BC and you need jruby's SSL support, so the last possibility for you is to use that very same version of BC as jruby ! I am sure jruby will support other versions of BC in one of its coming releases ;) actually it would be nice to have IMO. - Kristian - To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
Thanks Kristian, What's the best way to replace the BC .jar provided with JRuby with the same version as provided by BC? Can I just download and reference the older version in my JRuby script, or do I need to remove the version that comes with JRuby and replace it?

Re: [jruby-dev] Casting to different types in JRuby
JRUBY uses org.bouncycastle:bcmail-jdk15on:jar:1.46 org.bouncycastle:bcprov-jdk15on:jar:1.46 for testing you can just prepend them to your bootclassloader - something like jruby -J-Xbootclasspath/p:bcmail-jdk15on.jar:bcprov-jdk15on.jar but doing so with BC version 1.47 did not work for me (the openssl bit of jruby). but I rather doubt that this will work - see also http://www.bouncycastle.org/wiki/display/JA1/Porting+from+earlier+BC+releases+to+1.47+and+later with regards, Kristian - To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
