Installing the SATSA Reference

Implementation

The Reference Implementation for the Security and Trust Services APIs (SATSA) for Java 2 Platform, Micro Edition Specification provides an implementation of the four optional packages defined in that specification. These are:

■SATSA-APDU - Defines an API to support communication with smart card applications using the Application Protocol Data Unit (APDU) protocol.

■SATSA-JCRMI - Defines a Java Card Remote Method Invocation (JCRMI) client API that allows a Java™ 2 Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME™) application to invoke a method of a remote Java Card object.

■SATSA-PKI - Defines an API to support application-level digital signature signing and basic user credential management, using the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) protocol.

■SATSA-CRYPTO - Defines a subset of the Java™ 2 Platform, Standard Edition (J2SE™) cryptography API. It provides basic cryptographic operations to support message digest, signature verification, encryption, and decryption.

The SATSA 1.0 Reference Implementation is designed to run on top of a J2ME platform. It also runs with the Java Card™ Platform Development Kit 2.2.1 Reference Implementation, as this is used to simulate the functionality of a security element.

This chapter provides information about the software you must install prior to downloading the SATSA 1.0 RI distribution, as well as detailed instructions for installing the SATSA RI. This chapter also describes how to test your SATSA 1.0 installation and provides additional information about configuration.
