Correction
javacard.framework.TransactionException
Bug ID: 6694150
JCSystem transaction methods refer to a non-existant TransactionException constant of TransactionException.ILLEGAL_USE.
javacard.framework.TransactionException should have another constant with the following declaration:
public static final short ILLEGAL_USE = 5;
javacard.framework.KeyBuilder
Bug ID: 6687062
KeyBuilder is missing the factory method using the string key type parameter with provider selection.
javacard.security.KeyBuilder should have another method with the following signature:
public static Key buildKey(String keyType, String provider, short keyLength, boolean keyEncryption) throws CryptoException;
javacardx.security.CredentialManager
Bug ID: 6684154
The following methods of the CredentialManager class are incorrectly returning a key from the sun.spot implementation:
public abstract com.sun.spot.security.Key[] getCredentials(byte[] types, String endpointURI, byte mode)
public abstract com.sun.spot.security.PrivateKey getMatchingPrivateKey(Certificate certificate, String endpointURI, byte mode)
The return type from those methods must be javacard.framework.security.Key from the Java Card API 3.0.
