RE: Using XMLSecurity with a JCA provider other than default one

[Julien TAUPIN]

I have found how to select my provider :

JCEMapper.setProviderId(myprovider.getName());

I thought that the only way to use my own JCA provider was to place it at
the first place of the providers with the following code :

      Provider[] providers = Security.getProviders();
      for(int i=0; i<providers.length; i++)
      {
        Security.removeProvider(providers[i].getName());
      }
      
      Provider myProvider = null;
      Security.addProvider(myProvider);
      for(int i=0; i<providers.length; i++)
      {
        Security.addProvider(providers[i]);
      }

How can I ask XmlSecurity to use an instance of MyProvider without executing
this code ?

For the stack overflow problem it seems that it is a bug in the Sun
JarVerifier. This one use the default provider to verify the signature of
the archive but if the default provider is not the SUN one, it causes the
stack overflow exception.

Yes.

Could be a bug but more details are needed.
