Hi,
I've recently been working on some improvements to the certificates and
signature algorithms in Classpath, and the attached patch does the
following:
* Adds RSA (PKCS #1 v1.5) signatures for MD5 and SHA-1 (and,
optionally, MD2 and MD4 if some other library provides them).
* Adds key factories for encoded keys (PKCS#8 and X.509) and for RSA
keys.
* Tightens up the X.509 certificate parsing and adds more helpful
string representations returned by toString.
With this, Classpath's security provider can handle the most common
certificate types that exist in the wild. This, incidentally, provides
enough functionality such that the SSL implementation I am working on
<http://metastatic.org/source/jessie/> can run on a totally free
platform.
Changelog follows:
2003-09-01 Casey Marshall <address@hidden>
* gnu/java/security/der/DERReader.java
(skip): new method.
* gnu/java/security/provider/EncodedKeyFactory.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/Gnu.java
(<init>): added entries for new algorithms.
* gnu/java/security/provider/GnuDSAPrivateKey.java
updated copyright years.
(getFormat): return "PKCS#8" instead of null to reflect the
encoded form returned.
(getEncoded): create and return a PrivateKeyInfo ASN.1 structure
from PKCS#8, instead of nothing.
* gnu/java/security/provider/GnuDSAPublicKey.java
(getFormat): return "X.509" instead of null to reflect the
encoded form returned.
(getEncoded): create and return a SubjectPublicKey ASN.1
structure from X.509, instead of nothing.
(toString): check for null values.
* gnu/java/security/provider/DSAKeyFactory.java
(engineGeneratePrivate): now accept PKCS8EncodedKeySpec
via EncodedKeyFactory.
(engineGeneratePublic): now accept X509EncodedKeySpec.
(engineGetKeySpec): return PKCS#8 and X.509 key specs as
appropriate.
* gnu/java/security/provider/X509CertificateFactory.java
(engineGenerateCertPath): new methods.
(engineGetCertPathEncodings): new method.
* gnu/java/security/provider/RSA.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/MD5withRSA.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/MD4withRSA.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/MD2withRSA.java
new file.

new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/RSAKeyFactory.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/GnuRSAPrivateKey.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/provider/Makefile.am
added new files to EXTRA_DIST.
* gnu/java/security/x509/X500DistinguishedName.java
(setAttribute): ignore case when accepting types.
* gnu/java/security/x509/X509Certificate.java
(toString): return a more helpful representation.
(parse): use EncodedKeyFactory to parse public keys.
* gnu/java/security/x509/Util.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/x509/X509CertPath.java
new file.
* gnu/java/security/x509/Makefile.am
added new files to EXTRA_DIST.
