Hi Mandy
Sorry for late comment. My email client on Nokia E71 keeps crashing. (Hope
it's good this time).
I'm quite sure there are people out there calling KeyTool the same way.
Also, I feel a little weird that one tool is treated diffrently from
others.
Is it possible to leave all current class unchanged, and create new
packages called sun.security.tools.xxx (xxx can be keytool, jarsigner,
policytool), each with a single Xxx class whose main() simply calls
sun.securiry.tools.Xxx.main()?
Also, there are 3 Windows-only security tools (kinit, klist, ktab) in
sun.security.krb5.internal.tools. Should they be isolated the same way?
Thanks
Max
