-Title:        Building Certificate Store

-================================================================================
-
-Purpose
--------
-
-This document describes how to build CACerts.dat (certificate store) and
-certclients.dat (certificate client applications) files. These files are stored
-on a device in c:\system\data\ directory. They are necessary for Software
-Install and SSL/TLS.
-
-Certificates and trusters
--------------------------
-
-Every certificate stored in CACerts.dat has a set of UIDs associated with it,
-each UID marking the certificate as good for a particular purpose (application).
-Currently the following applications/UIDs are defined:
-
-- SW Install (268452523, or 0x100042AB)--certificate is suitable for software
-  install (SIS files);
-- SW Install OCSP Signing (268478646, or 0x1000A8B6)--certificate is suitable
-  for OCSP checking (SIS files);
-- MIDlet Installation (270506792, or 0x101F9B28)--certificate is good for Java
-  MIDlet installation, which includes OCSP checking;
-- Server Authentication (268441661, or 0x1000183D)--certificate is suitable for
-  SSL/TLS server authentication.
-
-These UIDs are stored in certclients.dat file. Once certclients.dat is in
-c:\system\data on the device, the Certificates Control Panel applet allows
-manual assignment of applications to each certificate.
-
-Files needed
-------------
-
-The following files are needed to build a certificate store:
-
-- T_CERTSTORE.EXE test harness, which is located in security/certman/tcertstore;
-  build it from security/certman/group;
-- bldcertstore.txt: test script located in security/certman/tcertstore/scripts;
-  you can modify it depending on which certificates/applications you want
-  included in the store. This script is exported into device's
-  c:\tcertstore\scripts.
-
-The following certificates are used for running tests:
-
-- Symbiana.der "Identity ACS Root"--Symbian application signing certificate that
-  is provided for reference only and is not used by tests
-- Symbianb.der "Testing ACS Root"--Symbian application signing test certificate
-  that is provided for reference only and is not used by tests
-- cacert.crt "TestCA"--SSL server CA certificate (self-signed)
-- thawtetest.crt "Thawte Root"--SW Install certificate
-- TOCSP-Root5-RSA.cer--SW Install and MIDlet Installation
-- TOCSP-Signing5-RSA.cer--OCSP Signing
-
-These certificates are copied into c:\tappinst\certs\ directory on the device.
-
-Building the store
-------------------
-
-To build a certificate store, perform the following steps:
-
-1. Build the T_CERTSTORE test harness and export test files for appinst and
-   certman.
-
-2. Go to the appropriate build directory (udeb or urel) and run the following
-   command:
-   
-   t_certstore c:\tcertstore\scripts\bldcertstore.txt c:\bldcertstore.log
-   
-   This will build c:\system\data\cacerts.dat and c:\system\data\certclients.dat
-   with test certificates. If you need to add your own certificates, modify the
-   bldcertstore.txt script accordingly.  The ‘console’ option is necessary to ensure 
-   the tool can operate independently of the UI environment.
