SunMSCAPI

Helo.

As a Java Security teacher, I'd like to know how a Java Developer can access the Microsoft public keys of other user through SunMSCAPI provider.

Windows-MY --> own, logged in user private keys

Windows-ROOT --> root ca's

But ? other, public key certficates ?

Thanks and kind regards,

In Java's definition, a certificate inside a keystore means it's trusted (it is called TrustedCertificateEntry). In Windows' keystores, a certificate is only a certificate, to trust it or not depends on what keystore it is in. Therefore, only these 2 keystores are supported currently.
