Constructs a Timestamp.
Params:
  • timestamp – is the timestamp's date and time. It must not be null.
  • signerCertPath – is the TSA's certificate path. It must not be null.
Throws:
/** * Constructs a Timestamp. * * @param timestamp is the timestamp's date and time. It must not be null. * @param signerCertPath is the TSA's certificate path. It must not be null. * @throws NullPointerException if timestamp or signerCertPath is null. */

Returns the date and time when the timestamp was generated.
Returns:The timestamp's date and time.

Returns the hash code value for this timestamp. The hash code is generated using the date and time of the timestamp and the TSA's certificate path.

Tests for equality between the specified object and this timestamp. Two timestamps are considered equal if the date and time of their timestamp's and their signer's certificate paths are equal.
Params:

Returns:true if the timestamp are considered equal, false otherwise.

Returns a string describing this timestamp.
