Java In A Nutshell, 5th Edition

An object of this type is returned by the build( ) method of a CertPathBuilder . The getCertPath( ) method returns the CertPath object that was built; this method will never return null . The algorithm-specific PKIXCertPathBuilderResult implementation defines other methods to return additional information about the path that was built.

public interface CertPathBuilderResult extends Cloneable { // Public Instance Methods Object clone ( ); CertPath getCertPath ( ); }
