Question

I want to use java key store to save keys and certificates. can anybody share some code to help me with this?

Answer 1

There should be enough example code in the KeyStore Javadocs page to get you started:

• https://docs.oracle.com/javase/9/docs/api/java/security/KeyStore.html

As for the ‘default’ keystore – I’m not sure such a thing exists, normally you either load it explicitly from a file, or you can configure it using the following system properties:

• javax.net.ssl.keyStore – Keystore location
• javax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword – Keystore password
• javax.net.ssl.keyStoreType – Keystore type (JKS, P12 etc)

And similar for the trust store:

• javax.net.ssl.trustStore
• javax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword
• javax.net.ssl.trustStoreType
