Java/C++ secure communication

Hi,

I'm working on a small project where client (C++) and server (Java) must communicate in a secure way. I'm not a specialist on JSSE but as far as I could find on tutorials and books, I have to create keys and certificates using the keytool shipped with JSDK. My doubt is how the C++ side will understand those keys and certificates if they are generated specifically for Java, I mean they are in a Java-aware format. Do I have to convert the keystore files to some other more generic and usual format? What would be this format?

It would be great if you could point out a resource where I could learn more how to integrate Java and C++ in a secure fashion.

Thank you very much

Best Regards

Cleverson Schmidt
