@section The @code{appletviewer} Tool

@table @b

@item SYNOPSIS
@code{appletviewer [OPTION]... URL...}@*
@code{appletviewer [OPTION]... -code CODE}@*
@code{appletviewer [OPTION]... -plugin INPUT,OUTPUT}

@item DESCRIPTION
The @code{appletviewer} tool loads and runs an applet.

Use the first form to test applets specified by tag.  The URL should
resolve to an HTML document from which the @code{appletviewer} will
extract applet tags.  The APPLET, EMBED and OBJECT tags are supported.
If a given document contains multiple applet tags, all the applets
will be loaded, with each applet appearing in its own window.
Likewise, when multiple URLs are specified, each applet tag instance
is given its own window.  If a given document contains no recognized
tags the @code{appletviewer} does nothing.

@example
@code{appletviewer http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/}
@end example

Use the second form to test an applet in development.  This form
allows applet tag attributes to be supplied on the command line.  Only
one applet may be specified using the @code{-code} option.  The
@code{-code} option overrides the URL form -- any URLs specified will
be ignored.

@example
@code{appletviewer -code Test.class -param datafile,data.txt}
@end example

@code{gcjwebplugin} uses the third form to communicate with the
@code{appletviewer} through named pipes.

@item URL OPTIONS
@table @b
@item -debug
This option is not yet implemented but is provided for compatibility.

@item -encoding CHARSET
Use this option to specify an alternate character encoding for the
specified HTML page.

@end table

@code{gcjwebplugin} uses the @code{-plugin} option to specify the
named pipe the @code{appletviewer} should use for receiving commands
(INPUT) and the one it should use for sending commands to
@code{gcjwebplugin} (OUTPUT).

@end table

@item DEBUGGING OPTION
@table @b
@item -verbose
Use the @code{-verbose} option to have the @code{appletviewer} print
debugging messages.

@end table

@item STANDARD OPTIONS
@table @b

@section The @code{jarsigner} Tool

The @b{jarsigner} tool is invoked from the command line, in one of two forms, as follows:

@example
@code{jarsigner [OPTION]... FILE ALIAS}
@code{jarsigner -verify [OPTION]... FILE}
@end example

When the first form is used, the tool signs the designated JAR file. The second form, on the other hand, is used to verify a previously signed JAR file.

@code{FILE} is the .JAR file to process; i.e. to sign if the first syntax form is used, or to verify if the second syntax form is used instead.

@code{ALIAS} must be a known @i{Alias} of a @i{Key Entry} in the designated @i{Key Store}. The private key material associated with this @i{Alias} is then used for signing the designated .JAR file.

The following options may be used when the tool is used for either signing, or verifying, a .JAR file.

@table @b
@item -verbose
Use this option to force the tool to generate more verbose messages, during its processing.

@item -internalsf
When present, the tool will include --which otherwise it does not-- the @code{.SF} file in the @code{.DSA} generated file.

@item -sectionsonly
When present, the tool will include in the @code{.SF} generated file --which otherwise it does not-- a header containing a hash of the whole manifest file.  When that header is included, the tool can quickly check, during verification, if the hash (in the header) matches or not the manifest file.

@item -provider PROVIDER_CLASS_NAME
A fully qualified class name of a @i{Security Provider} to add to the current list of @i{Security Providers} already installed in the JVM in-use. If a provider class is specified with this option, and was successfully added to the runtime --i.e. it was not already installed-- then the tool will attempt to remove this @i{Security Provider} before exiting.

@item -help
Prints a help text similar to this one.

@subsection Signing options

The following options may be specified when using the tool for signing purposes.

@table @b
@item -keystore URL
Use this option to specify the location of the key store to use. The default value is a file URL referencing the file named @file{.keystore} located in the path returned by the call to @code{java.lang.System#getProperty(String)} using @code{user.home} as argument.

If a URL was specified, but was found to be malformed --e.g. missing protocol element-- the tool will attempt to use the URL value as a file-name (with absolute or relative path-name) of a key store --as if the protocol was @code{file:}.

@item -storetype STORE_TYPE
Use this option to specify the type of the key store to use. The default value, if this option is omitted, is that of the property @code{keystore.type} in the security properties file, which is obtained by invoking the static method call @code{getDefaultType()} in @code{java.security.KeyStore}.

@item -storepass PASSWORD
Use this option to specify the password which will be used to unlock the key store. If this option is missing, the User will be prompted to provide a password.

@item -keypass PASSWORD
Use this option to specify the password which the tool will use to unlock the @i{Key Entry} associated with the designated @i{Alias}.

If this option is omitted, the tool will first attempt to unlock the @i{Key Entry} using the same password protecting the key store. If this fails, you will then be prompted to provide a password.

@item -sigfile NAME
Use this option to designate a literal that will be used to construct file names for both the @code{.SF} and @code{.DSA} signature files. These files  will be generated, by the tool, and placed in the @file{META-INF} directory of the signed JAR.  Permissible characters for @code{NAME} must be in the range "a-zA-Z0-9_-".  All characters will be converted to upper-case ones.

If this option is missing, the first eight characters of the @code{ALIAS} argument will be used. When this is the case, any character in @code{ALIAS} that is outside the permissible range of characters will be replaced by an underscore.

@item -signedjar FILE
Use this option to specify the file name of the signed JAR. If this option is omitted, then the signed JAR will be named the same as @code{FILE}; i.e. the input JAR file will be replaced with the signed copy.

@section The @code{keytool} Tool

Cryptographic credentials, in a Java environment, are usually stored in a @i{Key Store}. The Java SDK specifies a @i{Key Store} as a persistent container of two types of objects: @i{Key Entries} and @i{Trusted Certificates}. The security tool @b{keytool} is a Java-based application for managing those types of objects.

A @i{Key Entry} represents the private key part of a key-pair used in Public-Key Cryptography, and a signed X.509 certificate which authenticates the public key part for a known entity; i.e. the owner of the key-pair. The X.509 certificate itself contains the public key part of the key-pair.

A @i{Trusted Certificate} is a signed X.509 certificate issued by a trusted entity. The @i{Trust} in this context is relative to the User of the @b{keytool}. In other words, the existence of a @i{Trusted Certificate} in the @i{Key Store} processed by a @b{keytool} command implies that the User trusts the @i{Issuer} of that @i{Trusted Certificate} to also sign, and hence authenticates, other @i{Subjects} the tool may process.

@i{Trusted Certificates} are important because they allow the tool to mechanically construct @i{Chains of Trust} starting from one of the @i{Trusted Certificates} in a @i{Key Store} and ending with a certificate whose @i{Issuer} is potentially unknown. A valid chain is an ordered list, starting with a @i{Trusted Certificate} (also called the @i{anchor}), ending with the target certificate, and satisfying the condition that the @i{Subject} of certificate @code{#i} is the @i{Issuer} of certificate @code{#i + 1}.

The @b{keytool} is invoked from the command line as follows:

@example
@code{keytool [COMMAND]...}
@end example

Multiple @code{COMMAND}s may be specified at once, each complete with its own options. @b{keytool} will parse all the arguments, before processing, and executing, each @code{COMMAND}. If an exception occurs while executing one @code{COMMAND} @b{keytool} will abort. Note however that because the implementation of the tool uses code to parse command line options that also supports GNU-style options, you have to separate each command group with a double-hyphen; e.g

@example
@code{keytool -list -- -printcert -alias mykey}
@end example

Here is a summary of the commands supported by the tool:

@enumerate
@item Add/Update commands
@itemize @bullet
@item -genkey [OPTION]@dots{}
Generate a new @i{Key Entry}, eventually creating a new key store.

@item -import [OPTION]@dots{}
Add, to a key store, @i{Key Entries} (private keys and certificate chains authenticating the public keys) and @i{Trusted Certificates} (3rd party certificates which can be used as @i{Trust Anchors} when building chains-of-trust).

@item -selfcert [OPTION]@dots{}
Generate a new self-signed @i{Trusted Certificate}.

@item -cacert [OPTION]@dots{}
Import a CA @i{Trusted Certificate}.

@item -identitydb [OPTION]@dots{}
@b{NOT IMPLEMENTED YET}.@*
Import a JDK 1.1 style Identity Database.
@end itemize

@item Export commands
@itemize @bullet
@item -certreq [OPTION]@dots{}
Issue a @i{Certificate Signing Request} (CSR) which can be then sent to a @i{Certification Authority} (CA) to issue a certificate signed (by the CA) and authenticating the @i{Subject} of the request.

@item -export [OPTION]@dots{}
Export a certificate from a key store.
@end itemize

@item Display commands
@itemize @bullet
@item -list [OPTION]@dots{}
Print one or all certificates in a key store to @code{STDOUT}.

@item -printcert [OPTION]@dots{}
Print a human-readable form of a certificate, in a designated file, to @code{STDOUT}.
@end itemize

@item Management commands
@itemize @bullet
@item -keyclone [OPTION]@dots{}
Clone a @i{Key Entry} in a key store.

@item -storepasswd [OPTION]@dots{}

@subsection Getting help

To get a general help text about the tool, use the @code{-help} option; e.g.

@example
@code{keytool -help}
@end example

To get more specific help text about one of the tool's command use the @code{-help} option for that command; e.g.

@example
@code{keytool -genkey -help}
@end example

In both instances, the tool will print a help text and then will exit the running JVM.

It is worth noting here that the help messages printed by the tool are I18N-ready. This means that if/when the contents of the tool's @i{Message Bundle} properties file are available in languages other than English, you may see those messages in that language.

@subsection Common options

The following @code{OPTION}s are used in more than one @code{COMMAND}. They are described here to reduce redundancy.

@table @b
@anchor{alias}
@item -alias ALIAS
Every entry, be it a @i{Key Entry} or a @i{Trusted Certificate}, in a key store is uniquely identified by a user-defined @i{Alias} string. Use this option to specify the @i{Alias} to use when referring to an entry in the key store. Unless specified otherwise, a default value of @code{mykey} shall be used when this option is omitted from the command line.

@anchor{keyalg}
@item -keyalg ALGORITHM
Use this option to specify the canonical name of the key-pair generation algorithm. The default value for this option is @code{DSS} (a synonym for the Digital Signature Algorithm also known as DSA).

@anchor{keysize}
@item -keysize SIZE
Use this option to specify the number of bits of the shared modulus (for both the public and private keys) to use when generating new keys. A default value of @code{1024} will be used if this option is omitted from the command line.

@anchor{validity}
@item -validity DAY_COUNT
Use this option to specify the number of days a newly generated certificate will be valid for. The default value is @code{90} (days) if this option is omitted from the command line.

@anchor{storetype}
@item -storetype STORE_TYPE
Use this option to specify the type of the key store to use. The default value, if this option is omitted, is that of the property @code{keystore.type} in the security properties file, which is obtained by invoking the static method call @code{getDefaultType()} in @code{java.security.KeyStore}.

@anchor{storepass}
@item -storepass PASSWORD
Use this option to specify the password protecting the key store. If this option is omitted from the command line, you will be prompted to provide a password.

@anchor{keystore}
@item -keystore URL
Use this option to specify the location of the key store to use. The default value is a file URL referencing the file named @file{.keystore} located in the path returned by the call to @code{java.lang.System#getProperty(String)} using @code{user.home} as argument.

If a URL was specified, but was found to be malformed --e.g. missing protocol element-- the tool will attempt to use the URL value as a file-name (with absolute or relative path-name) of a key store --as if the protocol was @code{file:}.

@anchor{provider}
@item -provider PROVIDER_CLASS_NAME
A fully qualified class name of a @i{Security Provider} to add to the current list of @i{Security Providers} already installed in the JVM in-use. If a provider class is specified with this option, and was successfully added to the runtime --i.e. it was not already installed-- then the tool will attempt to removed this @i{Security Provider} before exiting.

@anchor{file}
@item -file FILE
Use this option to designate a file to use with a command. When specified with this option, the value is expected to be the fully qualified path of a file accessible by the File System. Depending on the command, the file may be used as input or as output. When this option is omitted from the command line, @code{STDIN} will be used instead, as the source of input, and @code{STDOUT} will be used instead as the output destination.

@anchor{verbose}
@item -v
Unless specified otherwise, use this option to enable more verbose output.

@end table

@comment ----------------------------------------------------------------------

@node Distinguished Names, Add/Update Commands, Common keytool Options, keytool Tool
@comment node-name, next, previous, up
@subsection X.500 Distinguished Names

@anchor{dn}
A @i{Distinguished Name} (or DN) MUST be supplied with some of the @code{COMMAND}s using a @code{-dname} option. The syntax of a valid value for this option MUST follow RFC-2253 specifications. Namely the following components (with their accepted meaning) will be recognized. Note that the component name is case-insensitive:

@ftable @var
@item CN
The Common Name; e.g. @kbd{host.domain.com}
@item OU
The Organizational Unit; e.g. @kbd{IT Department}
@item O
The Organization Name; e.g. @kbd{The Sample Company}
@item L
The Locality Name; e.g. @kbd{Sydney}
@item ST
The State Name; e.g. @kbd{New South Wales}
@item C
The 2-letter Country identifier; e.g. @kbd{AU}
@end ftable

When specified with a @code{-dname} option, each pair of component/value will be separated from the other with a comma. Each component and value pair MUST be separated by an equal sign. For example, the following is a valid DN value:@*

@format
CN=host.domain.com, O=The Sample Company, L=Sydney, ST=NSW, C=AU
@end format
@*
If the @i{Distinguished Name} is required, and no valid default value can be used, the tool will prompt you to enter the information through the console.

@item -sigalg ALGORITHM
The canonical name of the digital signature algorithm to use for signing certificates. If this option is omitted, a default value will be chosen based on the type of the key-pair; i.e. the algorithm that ends up being used by the -keyalg option. If the key-pair generation algorithm is @code{DSA}, the value for the signature algorithm will be @code{SHA1withDSA}. If on the other hand the key-pair generation algorithm is @code{RSA}, then the tool will use @code{MD5withRSA} as the signature algorithm.

@item -dname NAME
This a mandatory value for the command. If no value is specified --i.e. the @code{-dname} option is omitted-- the tool will prompt you to enter a @i{Distinguished Name} to use as both the @i{Owner} and @i{Issuer} of the generated self-signed certificate.

If the @i{Alias} does not already exist in the key store, the tool treats the certificate read from the input source as a new @i{Trusted Certificate}. It then attempts to discover a chain-of-trust, starting from that certificate and ending at another @i{Trusted Certificate}, already stored in the key store. If the @code{-trustcacerts} option is present, an additional key store, of type @code{JKS} named @file{cacerts}, and assumed to be present in @file{$@{JAVA_HOME@}/lib/security} will also be consulted if found --@code{$@{JAVA_HOME@}} refers to the location of an installed @i{Java Runtime Environment} (JRE). If no chain-of-trust can be established, and unless the @code{-noprompt} option has been specified, the certificate is printed to @code{STDOUT} and the user is prompted for a confirmation.

If @i{Alias} exists in the key store, the tool will treat the certificate(s) read from the input source as a @i{Certificate Reply}, which can be a chain of certificates, that eventually would replace the chain of certificates associated with the @i{Key Entry} of that @i{Alias}. The substitution of the certificates only occurs if a chain-of-trust can be established between the bottom certificate of the chain read from the input file and the @i{Trusted Certificates} already present in the key store. Again, if the @code{-trustcacerts} option is specified, additional @i{Trusted Certificates} in the same @file{cacerts} key store will be considered. If no chain-of-trust can be established, the operation will abort.

@item -keypass PASSWORD
Use this option to specify the password which the tool will use to protect the @i{Key Entry} associated with the designated @i{Alias}, when replacing this @i{Alias}' chain of certificates with that found in the certificate reply.

If this option is omitted, and the chain-of-trust for the certificate reply has been established, the tool will first attempt to unlock the @i{Key Entry} using the same password protecting the key store. If this fails, you will then be prompted to provide a password.

@item -noprompt
Use this option to prevent the tool from prompting the user.

@item -trustcacerts
Use this option to indicate to the tool that a key store, of type @code{JKS}, named @file{cacerts}, and usually located in @file{lib/security} in an installed @i{Java Runtime Environment} should be considered when trying to establish chain-of-trusts.

Use this command to import, a CA certificate and add it to the key store as a @i{Trusted Certificate}. The @i{Alias} for this new entry will be constructed from the FILE's base-name after replacing hyphens and dots with underscores.

This command is useful when used in a script that recursively visits a directory of CA certificates to populate a @code{cacerts.gkr} @i{Key Store} of trusted certificates which can then be used commands that specify the @code{-trustcacerts} option.

Use this command to generate a PKCS#10 @i{Certificate Signing Request} (CSR) and write it to a designated output destination. The contents of the destination should look something like the following:

@example
-----BEGIN NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
MI...QAwXzEUMBIGA1UEAwwLcnNuQGdudS5vcmcxGzAZBgNVBAoMElUg

-----END NEW CERTIFICATE REQUEST-----
@end example

@b{IMPORTANT}: Some documentation (e.g. RSA examples) claims that the @code{Attributes} field, in the CSR is @code{OPTIONAL} while RFC-2986 implies the opposite.

Some tools --@pxref{Security Tools}-- allow using other than the English language when prompting the User for input, and outputing messages. This chapter describes the elements used to offer this support and how they can be adapted for use with specific languages.

@section Language-specific resources

The Tools use Java @code{ResourceBundle}s to store messages, and message templates they use at runtime to generate the message text itself, depending on the locale in use at the time.

The @i{Resource Bundles} these tools use are essentially Java @i{Properties} files consisting of a set of @i{Name/Value} pairs. The @i{Name} is the @i{Propery Name} and the @i{Value} is a substitution string that is used when the code references the associated @i{Name}. For example the following is a line in a @i{Resource Bundle} used by the @code{keytool} Tool:

@example
Command.23=A correct key password MUST be provided
@end example

When the tool needs to signal a mandatory but missing key password, it would reference the property named @code{Command.23} and the message "@kbd{A correct key password MUST be provided}" will be used instead. This indirect referencing of "resources" permits replacing, as late as possible, the English strings with strings in other languages, provided of course @i{Resource Bundles} in those languages are provided.

For the GNU Classpath Tools described in this Guide, the @i{Resource Bundles} are files named @file{messages[_ll[_CC[_VV]]].properties} where:

@ftable @var
@item ll
Is the 2-letter code for the Language,
@item CC
Is the 2-letter code for the Region, and
@item VV
Is the 2-letter code for the Variant of the language.
@end ftable

The complete list of language codes can be found at @uref{http://ftp.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/related/iso639.txt, Code for the representation of names of languages}. A similar list for the region codes can be found at @uref{http://userpage.chemie.fu-berlin.de/diverse/doc/ISO_3166.html, ISO 3166 Codes (Countries)}.

The location of the @i{Resource Bundles} for the GNU Classpath Tools is specific to each tool. The next table shows where these files are found in a standard GNU Classpath distribution:

@ftable @code
@item jarsigner
@file{gnu/classpath/tools/jarsigner}
@item keytool
@file{gnu/classpath/tools/keytool}
@end ftable

The collection of @i{Resource Bundles} in a location act as an inverted tree with a parent-child relationship. For example suppose in the @file{gnu/classpath/tools/keytool} there are 3 message bundles named:

@enumerate
@item @code{messages.properties}
@item @code{messages_fr.properties}
@item @code{messages_fr_FR.properties}
@end enumerate

In the above example, bundle #1 will act as the parent of bundle #2, which in turn will act as the parent for bundle #3. This ordering is used by the Java runtime to choose which file to load based on the set Locale. For example if the Locale is @code{fr_CH}, @code{messages_fr.properties} will be used because (a) @code{messages_fr_CH.properties} does not exist, but (b) @code{messages_fr.properties} is the parent for the required bundle, and it exists. As another example, suppose the Locale was set to @code{en_AU}; then the tool will end up using @code{messages.properties} because (a) @code{messages_en_AU.properties} does not exist, (b) @code{messages_en.properties} which is the parent for the required bundle does not exist, but (c) @code{messages.properties} exists and is the root of the hierarchy.

You can see from the examples above that @file{messages.properties} is the safety net that the Java runtime falls back to when failing to find a specific bunlde and its parent(s). This file is always provided with the Tool. In time, more localized versions will be included to cater for other languages.

In the meantime, if you are willing to contribute localized versions of these resources, grab the @file{messages.properties} for a specific tool; translate it; save it with the appropriate language and region suffix and mail it to @code{classpath@@gnu.org}.

@comment ----------------------------------------------------------------------

@node Message Formats, , Language Resources, I18N Issues
@comment node-name, next, previous, up
@section Message formats

If you open any of the @file{messages.properties} described in the previous section, you may see properties that look like so:

@example
Command.67=Issuer: @{0@}
Command.68=Serial number: @{0,number@}
Command.69=Valid from: @{0,date,full@} - @{0,time,full@}
Command.70=\ \ \ \ \ until: @{0,date,full@} - @{0,time,full@}
@end example

These are @i{Message Formats} used by the tools to customize a text string that will then be used either as a prompt for User input or as output.

If you are translating a @file{messages.properties} be careful not to alter text between curly braces.
