hi all, some time ago we at IAIK built a JCA provider based on OpenCard. this allows accessing smart cards for signing using the usual Java API; e.g. Signature.getInstance(.... now we published this provider library under an Apache-style license as open-source software. this means, anyone interested can use it without charge even in commercial projects. keep in mind that this product might not have the same high quality as other libraries from IAIK. we provide it as is without any support, because we have no plans to further develop this library. we just thought, if we do not use it ourselves, perhaps it might be useful for others nevertheless. mainly we used SeTec cards with their SetOCF card services for development and testing. however, with slight modifications, it should work with other cards and card services either. we also did some tests with GPK cards from GemPlus (but not with GemSAFE). you can download it from http://jce.iaik.tugraz.at/download/evaluation/index.php#iaik-tools-and-applications (you need to register for free, because we like to know who uses our products).
i hope some of you find it useful. regards Karl -- Karl Scheibelhofer, IAIK - Graz University of Technology Inffeldgasse 16a, 8010 Graz, Austria Fax: +43 316 873 5520 http://jce.iaik.tugraz.at --- > Visit the OpenCard web site at http://www.opencard.org/ for more > information on OpenCard---binaries, source code, documents. > This list is being archived at http://www.opencard.org/archive/opencard/ !
