Re: [equinox-dev] Eclipse Secure Storage - changing default encryption a

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

It looks like it is hard-coded in org.eclipse.equinox.internal.security.storage.friends.IStorageConstants.

Can you please enter a bug for this.
We probably need to change the defaults in Equinox to comply with the latest
requirements, or at least provide a way to override it.

Eclipse Secure Storage - changing default encryption

Hello, 

In order to comply with a govt crypto mandate, we are trying to programatically
change the default value of the Eclipse Secure Storage encryption algorithm
(screenshot below) - so that users of our product benefit from a higher
strength algorithm (as required by the mandate); however we have not been
able to find the right approach successfully to change this default value.
>From what I gather, the usual way to change Eclipse menu preferences (through
IPreferenceStore API) doesn't seem to help in this case for org.eclipse.equinox.security,
while it has helped in some other Eclipse preferences, when a colleague
tried that. 

Would somebody be able to guide what is the easiest/recommended method
for us to change the default encryption algorithm below, so that users
of our product end up using that algorithm by default? Thanks.
