1760019 - Migrate pipnss.properties to Fluent

Status: NEW

(Core :: Security: PSM, task, P5)

Description

[Eemeli Aro [:eemeli]]

Two of the strings in this file are currently formatted during startup: ManufacturerID and PrivateTokenDescription.

Strings from pipnss.properties are formatted by three functions:

• GetErrorMessage
• GetPIPNSSBundleString
• PIPBundleFormatStringFromName

Of these, the first two do not pass any formatting parameters, and the third (which does) is only ever called to format CertPasswordPrompt. This would imply that a number of the strings are never actually used, and could be dropped.

The properties-to-ftl tool should make migrating the .properties file itself relatively easy, though it isn't able to automatically update the C++ call sites. For that, there's at least an example that may be followed.
