Hi, The OAE that I submitted is different from the EOAE for RSA padding. I have some EOAE code not yet ported to classpath like OAE, http://www.syntelos.com/src/com/syntelos/foam/EOAE.java.html I could do this soonly. I'm really interested in a gnu.crypto that can stand alone and be useful -- if there's anyone else thinking so, let me know. I'm thinking the base class for the package is java.io.Filter/Stream. cheers John Vivek Lakshmanan wrote: > Hi All, > I have hit a couple of issues lately in getting Apache's XML security > implementation work with classpath's crypto components.
