GlobusCredential/GSSCredential conversion
As mentioned before, it is not recommended to use the GlobusCredential class
directly. To convert an instance of GlobusCredential to a GSSCredential instance,
you must first wrap it in org.globus.gsi.gssapi.GlobusGSSCredentialImpl class, as
shown below:
GlobusCredential cred = ...
GSSCredential cred = new GlobusGSSCredentialImpl(cred,
GSSCredential.ACCEPT_ONLY);
It is also possible to retrieve the org.globus.gsi.GlobusCredential object from the
GSSCredential instance if it is of the right type:
GSSCredential cred = ...
if (GSSCredential instanceof GlobusGSSCredentialImpl)
{
GlobusCredential globusCred =
