## org.bouncycastle.jce.provider
Class BouncyCastleProvider

    java.lang.Object
      java.util.Dictionary<K,V>
          java.util.Hashtable<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object>
              java.util.Properties
                  java.security.Provider
                      org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, java.util.Map<java.lang.Object,java.lang.Object>, ConfigurableProvider

    public final class BouncyCastleProvider

extends java.security.Provider
implements ConfigurableProvider

To add the provider at runtime use:

     import java.security.Security;
     import org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider;

     Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());

The provider can also be configured as part of your environment via static registration by adding an entry to the java.security properties file (found in $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/java.security, where $JAVA_HOME is the location of your JDK/JRE distribution). You'll find detailed instructions in the file but basically it comes down to adding a line:

        security.provider.<n>=org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider

Where <n> is the preference you want the provider at (1 being the most prefered).

Note: JCE algorithm names should be uppercase only so the case insensitive test for getInstance works.
