Remove Sun provider information from KeyPairGenerator javadoc

XMLWordPrintable

      The following sentences should be removed from the class description of KeyPairGenerator:

      "If the algorithm is the DSA algorithm, and the keysize (modulus size) is 512, 768, 1024, or 2048, then the Sun provider uses a set of precomputed values for the p, q, and g parameters. If the modulus size is not one of the above values, the Sun provider creates a new set of parameters."

      This type of implementation-specific information can change over time, even in update releases, therefore it can become out of date.

      I recommend that alternatively, we replace this with a link to the JDK Providers document where this information is better documented and can be updated independently of major JDK releases.

        There are no Sub-Tasks for this issue.
