Use the Security Manager to manage the security keystores for
your MIDP project. In this page, you can:
Edit the keys for an existing keystore
Create a new keystore
Export a keystore into the emulator platform you intend to use to test
the MIDlet.
You open the Security Manager dialog from the Signing
properties page by clicking the Open Security Manager button, or by choosing
Tools > Security Manager from the main menu.
There are two windows in this dialog:
The left window of the dialog shows the existing keystores for the current
project. From this window, you can select a keystore to edit.
The Keys window shows the keys within the keystore file. Check the Show
Details checkbox to see the details of key pairs within the keystore.
The Security Manager has the following controls:
Add Keystore. Enables you to import existing keystores or add new keystores
to the project.
Remove. Deletes keystores from the project.
Unlock. Enables you to enter
a password to unlock a key
pair for use.
Export. Enables you to export a key pair to an emulator
platform.
New. Creates a new key pair.
Delete. Deletes a key pair.
If you select a keystore that is locked, an Unlock
Keystore button appears in the center of the Security Manager dialog. To
unlock the keystore, click the button and enter a password in the Enter
Password dialog.
