Accessing a X.509 Cert using cfobject

Question

I'm trying to consume a webservice that requires an X.509
certificate. The webservice uses SOAP.

In our current setup, we already consume several SOAP
webservices. The way I usually do it is to create a XML Packet
where I manually generate the envelope, and then pass it using
CFHTTP.

I am having problems with this technique as I need to
generate the SOAP headers based off the binary tokens created by
the certificate.

I am never able to get anywhere using cfinvoke. I can never
even access the WSDL, which is why I always lean towards using
CFHTTP.

Does anyone know of any way to use a java object to access
the certificate and then output the tokens? I have already imported
the certificate into the cacerts keystore using the CF keytool
utility.

Thanks in advance,
Michael

I do not have much experience with certificates. But you might try posting your question over at houseoffusion.com as well (include your CF version). Someone there might have an answer for you, or know of a simpler solution.

If java really is the only option, have a look at the java api's:
