Hi!
With this code...

------
import org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider;
[...]
Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding", "BC");
------

I have the error :

java.security.NoSuchProviderException: Provider 'BC' not found
at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA6275)

I have the jar files : bcmail-jdk14-128.jar & bcprov-jdk14-128.jar with
jdk1.4

What's wrong?

Thanks.

Why don't you use this way:

import org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider;

Provider bc = new BouncyCastleProvider();
Cipher c = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/PKCS1Padding", bc);
