I think enrique's latest idea of simply avoiding bouncycastle
entirely is by far the best idea.
If you don't want to do that copying the geornimo code is fine
svn cp https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/geronimo/server/trunk/modules/
geronimo-util ??????

Can we just create a Directory equivalent of this same jar ... like
add it as a module so we do not have to depend on a Geronimo
release cycle for this?
Let's just fork the project that Rick created and call it the
shared-bc thingy or something. It can have the IDEA files stripped
out of it.

David Jencks updated DIRSERVER-877:
-----------------------------------
Attachment: DIRSERVER-877-2.patch
Rick added the necessary classes to geronimo-util, and I deployed a
snapshot to the apache snapshot repo.
The attached patch makes apacheds build without bouncy-castle jars
and all the integration tests pass. The only drawback I can see is
that it uses a snapshot version.
I can see 2 choices here:
- I could try to get the changes into geronimo 1.2 which may get
released soon (we are waiting only for a couple other releases)
- At the end of the month we are expecting to push geronimo 2.0-M4
