You can programmatically import a credential into LiveCycle by using the Trust Manager API. For example, you can import a credential
used to sign a PDF document. (See Digitally Signing PDF Documents).
When importing a credential, you specify an alias for the credential.
The alias is used to perform a LiveCycle operation that
requires a credential. Once imported, a credential can be viewed
in Administration Console, as shown in the following illustration.
Notice that the alias for the credential is Secure.
Remarque : You cannot import a credential into LiveCycle using web services.
Summary of stepsTo import a credential into LiveCycle, perform
the following steps:
Include project files.
Create a credential service client.
Reference the credential.
Perform the import operation.
Include project filesInclude necessary files into your development
project. If you are creating a client application using Java, then
include the necessary JAR files. If you are using web services,
then make sure that you include the proxy files.
The following
JAR files must be added to your project’s classpath:
adobe-livecycle-client.jar
adobe-usermanager-client.jar
adobe-truststore-client.jar
adobe-utilities.jar (Required if LiveCycle is deployed
on JBoss)
jbossall-client.jar (Required if LiveCycle is deployed
on JBoss)
For information about the location of
these JAR files, see Including LiveCycle Java library files.
Create a credential service clientBefore you can programmatically
import a credential into LiveCycle, create a credential
service client. For information, see Setting connection properties.
Reference the credentialReference a credential that you want to
import into LiveCycle. The quick start associated with this
section references a P12 file located in the file system.
Perform the import operationAfter you reference the credential,
import the credential into LiveCycle. If the credential
is not successfully imported, an exception is thrown. When importing
a credential, you specify an alias for the credential.
Import credentials using the Java APIImport a credential into LiveCycle by using the
Trust Manager API (Java):
Include project files
Include client JAR files,
such as adobe-truststore-client.jar, in your Java project’s class
path.
Create a credential service client
Reference the credential
Create a java.io.FileInputStream object
by using its constructor. Pass a string value that specifies the
location of the credential.
Create a com.adobe.idp.Document object that
stores the credential by using the com.adobe.idp.Document constructor.
Pass the java.io.FileInputStream object that contains
the credential to the constructor.
Perform the import operation
Create a string
array that holds one element. Assign the value truststore.usage.type.sign to
the element.
Invoke the CredentialServiceClient object’s importCredential method
and pass the following values:
A string value that
specifies the alias value for the credential.
The com.adobe.idp.Document instance that
stores the credential.
A string value that specifies the password that is associated
with the credential.
The string array that contains the usage value. For example,
you can specify this value truststore.usage.type.sign.
To import a Reader Extension credential, specify truststore.usage.type.lcre.
