Please review the following change which adds support for 2048-bit DSA
keys and the DSA-SHA256 algorithm to the XML Signature implementation:
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mullan/webrevs/8038349/webrev.00/
JDK 8 already includes the underlying support for both of these in the
Sun provider. For 2048 bit keys, the ASN.1 parsing code in the XML
Signature layer needed to be adapted to handle 2048 bit keys, and for
SHA-256 it was just a matter of registering the algorithm URI and
instantiating a Signature object with the SHA256WithDSA algorithm.
Thanks,
Sean
