I need to use mapview control in android and I can't seem to understand how to run keytool. Is it installed with eclipse? I can't seem to find a download link.

Thanks

keytool is a tool to manage (public/private) security keys and certificates and store them in a Java KeyStore file (stored_file_name.jks).
It is provided with any standard JDK/JRE distributions.
You can find it under the following folder %JAVA_HOME%\bin.
