Hi John,

Updated Webrev -

The current code is based on the original code such as in KeyStoreUtil.java and is consistent with others.

This is the existing code struct which is working fine.

Done.

Moved the method createCacerts() to the suggested location under test/.
Tried to use getCertFromFile() and it did not work as it read from test.src. So we need to read the cert directly.

Ok, changed to not using for-each style.

Moved the patch to the suggested location under test/.

Done.

The test uses trusted certificates and checks no warnings on the weak algorithms to address the requirement described in the bug. I believe it does serve that purpose, and looks legitimate to me. There could be different ways of testing a functionality, and please let me know if there is a problem with the current approach.

There is no need to copy over the system cacerts, just make sure the file is created with the JKS storetype. We are thinking of upgrading the storetype of cacerts and it's nice to do this at a single place so we can modify it easily later.

It turns out that its caks.size() is zero detected at establishCertChain() in keytool/Main.java after root cert has been imported to that cacerts. At this point I’d like to suggest a separate bug be filed to cover the cacerts enhancement that you suggested.

This enables keytool to use the trusted certificates when verifying untrusted artifacts that are signed by CAs.
