Struct Validity 

pub struct Validity { /* private fields */ }

The interval a certificate says it may be relied on within.

Implementations

impl Validity

pub fn not_before(self) -> Time

The first moment.

pub fn not_after(self) -> Time

The last moment.

pub fn is_well_ordered(self) -> bool

Whether the interval ends no earlier than it begins.

A certificate whose interval runs backwards is never valid at any moment. It is reported rather than refused, because a person holding such a document is owed an explanation of it.

pub fn contains(self, moment: Time) -> bool

Whether a moment lies in the interval, at either end included.

pub fn covers(self, from: Time, to: Time) -> bool

Whether the whole of an interval lies inside this one.

This, not Self::contains, is the question the product asks. What is known about when a signature was made is an interval, and resolving it at one end would report a signature made before a certificate existed, or before it was revoked, as one made while it was good.
