Hi Varun,
good first commit, so you passed the entry test!
Regarding signing eclipse does not provide any certificate storage
plugins or similar - at least not to my knowledge. One option would
be to provide signing support with the available registered Java
certificates. It would be great if the tooling would allow to create
(self signed) certificates and to import given certificates within
some UI. Preferrably somewhere in the preferences. BouncyCastle
would also be an option as it is supported and provided by eclipse.
The proposal from my side is quite rough. You should think about it
and try to come up with useful ideas how to implement it. What we
expect is a useful addition to EASE, so a proof of concept would not
be sufficient. If you like we can discuss your ideas on this list,
but having some extra ideas would also be a benefit for your
proposal in case you have to battle with other interested students.
cheers
Christian

Hi Christian,
As you have guided, I have fetched the source code of
EASE, have added a JavaDoc and pushed the change on
gerrit. Click
Here to see the change.
I am interested in project EASE: Add Support to sign and
verify scripts for GSOC 2016.
I know cryptography, am familiar with java security API,
and signing and verification. I am also familiar with
running scripts with EASE.
Also, I wanted to know, what support are we going to provide
to sign scripts? Will signing be through OpenPGP or user can
sign using certificates that he is having.
If we are going to use OpenPGP, then there is nice library
BouncyCastle which we can use.
Thanks for helping!
Hi Varun,
glad you are interested in applying for GSoC. As there might
be some
competition among students I suggest you start digging around
a bit in
the mainling list archives. I posted some guidelines a few
weeks past.
For your application to be considered you need to commit a
very simple
patch as explained on the mailing list. This is just to prove
that you
are able to fetch the source code and start working with
bugzilla/gerrit.
regards
Christian
