[7u4] Request for approval for CR 7115524 - Regression: keytool -printcert -sslserver failure

[Weijun Wang]

Hi,

This is a request to backport a JDK 8 fix into JDK 7u4:

     7115524: Regression: keytool -printcert -sslserver failure
     http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7115524

The fix for JDK 8 is:

     http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8/tl/jdk/rev/d1928ae4e0a2

Due to a recent refactoring in JDK 8, the exact code changes for jdk7u4 
are not the same as the one in JDK 8. The webrev for 7u4 is at:

     7115524: Regression: keytool -printcert -sslserver failure

and it has been reviewed by Xuelei Fan.

We need to backport the fix so that the keytool command work as 
expected. The issue is exposed by CR 7113275, which has already been 
backport to JDK 7u4.

I intend to push it to

     ssh://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7u/jdk7u-dev-gate/jdk


Thanks
Max
