Some things don't work due to ongoing library development. There is so much that can be done.

Warning

/** 
 * All of the networking and tools with security should be @Deprecated due to
 * how the password handling is performed. Essentially, at present, ca.tecreations.Properties reads Java String(s).
 * If a password is among the data entries, it is stored in the global list of Strings for that specific JVM.
 * Also, there is no protection, at present, for the .properties files themselves, nor is there automatic encryption/decryption
 * of those files. A better way to approach this, I think, is to obtain a master security password which would be used to secure
 * any sensitive files. A watcher thread would need to be activated to alert of a file in that list being read, outside of software
 * use, thereby alerting the user that the master password needs to be changed and therefore, subsequent decryption/re-encrypting.
 * 
 * I guess. There should be a lockout screen after no activity for a User Set, or pre-defined default to restrict nearby workers, etc.
 * Anytime the computer is about to go to sleep, the lockout screen should issue a "REQUIRED-ACKNOWLEDGEMENT-==-IN_EFFECT".
 * 
 * 
 * Try to understand the risks before using.
 * 
 * Also note that Deploy uses the make.secure properties value for convenience.
 * If you would rather have that prompt you would need to write that in yourself, for now.
 * 
 * Further, the PKITool which handles the keystores, certificates and keys, certainly
 * uses a mix of String and char[]. 
 *
 * Users' of the software acknowledge the security risks and will perform whatever changes they deem appropriate prior to use.
 * Neither tecreations.ca, nor Tim de Vries, make any claims or warranty about the fitness of the product library for any particular use or purpose.

Using The Library

You'll need a JDK (Java Development Kit)... You can get one here: Oracle JDK's. Windows is [x86 (32 bit) and, x64 (64 bit, but mostly everything is 64 bit now)], anything else, you should know what to do or who to contact. Anything newer than version 17 should work. I compile to version 17, but you can change that. Minimum version is Java 9 for Process.pid() and, if I recall correctly, there were some Bouncy Castle cryptography changes requiring source version 11.

You'll probably want an IDE (Integrated Development Environment). I'm working on an editor, but it's slow and careful work. I use NetBeans 18 (Install JDK BEFORE NetBeans) and a Java Ant Project with Existing Classes and package to .jar using ca.tecreations.apps.deploy.Deploy, but you can use any text editor and Command prompt, or terminal, or jethro.jar to launch. Compiling is automatic, according to configuration, via JavaCompiler.

You can construct a Maven/Ant style project by using DependencyViewer.


  1. Last Deployed Installer --- TEC_VERSION.jar {StusTwelve.jar} : Is below:
    StusTwelve.jar
  2. A double click will launch the Validator if you have the JDK installed. or use a java -jar StusTwelve.jar command.
  3. Refer to the Documentation menu above to review the operations the Validator performs.
  4. To use FileTool, you will need the default security configuration that Validator creates, and then run NameService, configure your NetworkConfig files for TLS/PKI and also in NameService.properties and that should work.
  5. Happy Coding!
