Actually they should use RES_ prefix instead of REQ_ to match 
IRequest.RES_SUCCESS/ERROR since it's for 'result', or don't use prefix 
at all.

Also, the new constants use uppercase values "SUCCESS/ERROR", but the 
the request status is in lower case. It would be more consistent to use 
lowercase values too for the result.

   Request ID: 5
   Type: enrollment
   Request Status: complete
   Operation Result: SUCCESS  <-- use lower case
   Certificate ID: 0x5

The code can be simplified as follows:

     if (result == null || result.equals(IRequest.RES_SUCCESS)) {
         info.setOperationResult(CertRequestInfo.RES_SUCCESS);

     } else {
         info.setOperationResult(CertRequestInfo.RES_ERROR);
         String error = request.getExtDataInString(IRequest.ERROR);
         info.setErrorMessage(error);   <-- no need to check for null
     }

Everything else is good. ACK.
