JCE in AdoptOpenJDK 11

Question

Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) can be found here, but that page says

Current versions of the JDK do not require these policy files. They are provided here for use with older version of the JDK.

JDK 9 and later ship with, and use by default, the unlimited policy files.

Does this apply to AdoptOpenJDK 11 as well? Or is this restricted to Oracle's JDKs? How do I know they are available?

Answer 1

According to this guide:

I’ve been asked whether Java’s Cryptography/Security extension (JCE) is supported in OpenJDK. The answer is yes it is. As a note, in OpenJDK as of 8b161, unlimited cryptography policy is enabled by default (previously you had to download the unlimited strength files manually from Oracle).

The first link is restricted, but the bug entry sounds promising. But regarding the last question ("how do I now they are available"): What can I do to verify that locally with my installation? – Plastid
