-Djdk.nativeECKeyGen

This option enables or disables OpenSSL native cryptographic support for the EC key generation algorithm.

Syntax

    -Djdk.nativeECKeyGen=[true|false]
Setting value Default
-Djdk.nativeECKeyGen true yes
-Djdk.nativeECKeyGen false

Explanation

OpenSSL support is enabled by default for the EC key generation algorithm. If you want to turn off support for this algorithm only, set this option to false. To turn off support for this and other algorithms, see the -Djdk.nativeCrypto system property command line option.

Note: The EC key generation algorithm is not supported for OpenSSL on AIX®. This option is ignored on AIX and the Java implementation is always used.
