Hallo,

(Sorry for my English)

JavaKey "-gk option" in JDK 1.1.7 and JDK 1.1.7a don't work! It loops
forever!!!
I "reload" the old JDK 1.1.6 and the "-gk option" works fine...
Also the new JDK 1.1.7a's Javakey don't work...

Example:
=============================================================
<1 step> javakey -cs test true

[OK! works well in every JDK...]

<2 step> javakey -gk test DSA 512

[Loops forever in JDK 1.1.7/a...]

<2 step, alternate way> javakey -gk test DSA 512 pubkey privkey

[Loops forever JDK 1.1.7/a... (but in JDK 1.1.6 works well)]

===============================================================

Depends to me? Or is a bug?

Can you help me? I need Javakey for my Degree Thesis!
