## Enum CRLReason

- java.lang.Object
- - java.lang.Enum<CRLReason>
  - - java.security.cert.CRLReason

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, Comparable<CRLReason>

      public enum CRLReason
      extends Enum<CRLReason>

  The CRLReason enumeration specifies the reason that a certificate is revoked, as defined in RFC 3280: Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificate and CRL Profile.
  Since:
    1.7
  See Also:
    `X509CRLEntry.getRevocationReason()`, `CertificateRevokedException.getRevocationReason()`

    - #### UNSPECIFIED

          public static final CRLReason UNSPECIFIED

      This reason indicates that it is unspecified as to why the certificate has been revoked.

    - #### KEY_COMPROMISE

          public static final CRLReason KEY_COMPROMISE

      This reason indicates that it is known or suspected that the certificate subject's private key has been compromised. It applies to end-entity certificates only.

    - #### CA_COMPROMISE

          public static final CRLReason CA_COMPROMISE

      This reason indicates that it is known or suspected that the certificate subject's private key has been compromised. It applies to certificate authority (CA) certificates only.

    - #### AFFILIATION_CHANGED

          public static final CRLReason AFFILIATION_CHANGED

      This reason indicates that the subject's name or other information has changed.

    - #### SUPERSEDED

          public static final CRLReason SUPERSEDED

      This reason indicates that the certificate has been superseded.

    - #### CESSATION_OF_OPERATION

          public static final CRLReason CESSATION_OF_OPERATION

      This reason indicates that the certificate is no longer needed.

    - #### CERTIFICATE_HOLD

          public static final CRLReason CERTIFICATE_HOLD

      This reason indicates that the certificate has been put on hold.

    - #### UNUSED

          public static final CRLReason UNUSED

      Unused reason.

    - #### REMOVE_FROM_CRL

          public static final CRLReason REMOVE_FROM_CRL

      This reason indicates that the certificate was previously on hold and should be removed from the CRL. It is for use with delta CRLs.

    - #### PRIVILEGE_WITHDRAWN

          public static final CRLReason PRIVILEGE_WITHDRAWN

      This reason indicates that the privileges granted to the subject of the certificate have been withdrawn.

    - #### AA_COMPROMISE

          public static final CRLReason AA_COMPROMISE

      This reason indicates that it is known or suspected that the certificate subject's private key has been compromised. It applies to authority attribute (AA) certificates only.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### values

          public static CRLReason[] values()

      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

          for (CRLReason c : CRLReason.values())
              System.out.println(c);

      Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    - #### valueOf

          public static CRLReason valueOf(String name)

      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
        `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
        `IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        `NullPointerException` - if the argument is null
