[Q] signapk.java - hardcode key password during CM11 build - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

anyone know how to update this code snippet so the platform, media, etc. keys get their password? we're running a CM11 build using make -j32 otapackage. the build crashes b/c one of the processes isn't passing the password. for us to build we can only run make otapackage, which takes hours.
/**
* Reads the password from stdin and returns it as a string.
*
* @param keyFile The file containing the private key. Used to prompt the user.
*/
private static String readPassword(File keyFile) {
// TODO: use Console.readPassword() when it's available.
System.out.print("Enter password for " + keyFile + " (password will not be hidden): ");
System.out.flush();
BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
try {
return stdin.readLine();
} catch (IOException ex) {
return null;
}
}
