Hi Andrew -

I really need to work on fleshing out my emails... :-/

The _20 release of the normal (non-OpenJDK) is missing this update. I had thought that this fix was supposed to be back-ported to the closed JDK 6 release. I've got the OpenJDK built on my local machine, but the folks I'm working with would rather use the pre-packaged Windows version etc etc etc... sigh.

Thanks - Mike

Hi guys -

I see from the Mercurial logs that this went in to both the jdk6 and jdk7 repositories.  For jdk6 - it's rev 302 which looks like this should have ended up in the 19 release But all the files in lib/ext/sunpkcs11.jar  for 20 are all tagged as 1 September 2009.... Is the sunpkcs11.jar provider not getting regenerated and rebundled during the release process? Mike It has been: $ hg log -R jdk -k 6763530 changeset: 302:82b80660cac3 user: vinnie date: Thu Jan 21 23:59:41 2010 +0000 summary: 6763530: Cannot decode PublicKey (Proider SunPKCS11, curve prime256v1) and certainly is present on IcedTea6's builds. -- Andrew :-) Free Java Software Engineer Red Hat, Inc.
