    <p>I'm trying to add BouncyCastle as a security provider on Windows XP Pro so I can use it to add some certs to an Android application per the instructions <a href="http://blog.crazybob.org/2010/02/android-trusting-ssl-certificates.html" rel="noreferrer">here</a>. Unfortunately I can't get it to add the provider.</p> <p>I've:</p> <ol> <li>Downloaded the provider to <code>C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\ext\</code>.</li> <li>Added <code>C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\ext\bcprov-jdk16-146.jar</code> to <code>%CLASSPATH%</code>.</li> <li>Added <code>security.provider.7=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider</code> to java.security (7 being the next int in the order).</li> </ol> <p>When I run:</p> <pre><code>keytool -import -v -trustcacerts -alias 0 -file mycert.crt -keystore mystore.bks -storetype BKS -providerName org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider -storepass mypassword </code></pre> <p>I get the following error message:</p> <pre><code>keytool error: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider </code></pre> <p>I've also tried adding it dynamically:</p> <pre><code>import java.security.Provider; import java.security.Security; import java.util.Enumeration; import org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider; public class BouncyCastleMain { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider()); // add it try { // list them out Provider p[] = Security.getProviders(); for (int i = 0; i &lt; p.length; i++) { System.out.println(p[i]); for (Enumeration&lt;?&gt; e = p[i].keys(); e.hasMoreElements();) System.out.println("\t" + e.nextElement()); } } catch (Exception e) { System.out.println(e); } } } </code></pre> <p>At first I got an access error when compiling the java class, but changed it to a warning per the suggestion <a href="http://lkamal.blogspot.com/2008/09/eclipse-access-restriction-on-library.html" rel="noreferrer">here</a>. Now when I run the code it shows BouncyCastle in the list of providers but it doesn't stick around after the program is done.</p> <p>I'm sure it must be doable, but I'm stymied over how to get this guy installed long enough to run keytool using it. Is it possible to run keytool via a java API, or could there be some step I've missed that will make the provider stick around?</p> <p>Thanks!</p>
