On 8346720: Support Generic keys in SunPKCS11 SecretKeyFactory

[Wei-Jun Wang]

Hi Martin,

Happy New Year!

I’m currently working on

    8346997: Java Security Standard Algorithm Names spec should include key algorithm names
    https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8346997 

As you can see, it involves only spec changes.

Some days ago, we asked you to close out 8346720: Support Generic keys in SunPKCS11 SecretKeyFactory (https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8346720) because it’s closely related to the enhancement I’m working on. However, I believe your enhancement may require real code changes, which might be better handled separately.

It might make sense to re-open JDK-8346720. I could still include the Standard Names changes for SecretKeyFactory.Generic in my enhancement, leaving just the SunPKCS11 Provider changes for you.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Weijun
