    .
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • Some Oracle security classes for Java7 should be removed.
    

Problem conclusion

  • IBM JCE does support the DSA key.  There is no need to access
    internal DSA classes as the external framework should be used.As
    discussed above, IBM Java will uses DSA key from IBM JCE. The
    patch to remove Oracle internal changes is expected.Therefore,
    for Java7, we also need to remove above two java files as well
    as three Oracle internal java files depending on those 2
    files:src/share/classes/sun/security/provider/DSAParameterGenera
    tor.javasrc/share/classes/sun/security/provider/DSAPublicKey.jav
    asrc/share/classes/sun/security/provider/DSAPublicKeyImpl.java
    .
    A key generated by a JRE containing this APAR will be compatible
    with the JRE that doesn't contain this APAR.
    .
    This APAR will be fixed in the following Java Releases:
       7 R1 SR2 FP10  (7.1.2.10)
    .

    Refreshes and Fix Packs.
