| Installation of Bouncy Castle for use in TomEE itself is done in two steps: |
| |
| 1. Add the Bouncy Castle provider jar to the `$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext` directory |
| 1. Create a Bouncy Castle provider entry in the `$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security` file |
| |
| The entry to `java.security` will look something like the following: |
| |
| security.provider.N=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider |
| |
| Replace `N` with the order of precedence you would like to give Bouncy Castle in comparison to the |
| other providers in the file. **Recommended** would be the last entry in the list -- `N` being the higest number in the list. |
| **Warning** that configuring Bouncy Castle as the first provider, `security.provider.1`, may cause JVM errors. |
