JAVA - Creating X509 certificate from byte array

Question

Hi, my server application send a certificate (by an array of byte) to the client who have to recreate the original certificate using the byte[] array. How can i do this?

If i use the certificateFactory i can only pass by parameter an InputStream, which is not what i need.

Anybody can help me?

Thank you in advance

Going from a byte[] to an InputStream is easy - just wrap the array in a ByteArrayInputStream. If you've tried that and it didn't work, please provide more information.
