Support for bouncycastle 1.48

[ellert]

Debian unstable has updated bouncycastle to version 1.48. The jGlobus sources do not compile against this version.

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=713200

This should preferably be fixed in a backward compatible way so that the code still compiles with bc 1.45 and 1.46, since these are the versions in EPEL5 and EPEL6.

Maybe it needs to be done using patches as the support for different tomcat versions is implemented.

Bouncycastle 1.49 [1] is also available.
Should we upgrade to bouncycastle 1.49 ?

I think we can manage this with profiles - how complex are the changes?

Hi all,

I think that it will not be an easy task with the curent jglobus source code.
In my forked version (develop branch) I did a lot of work a couple of month ago in order to remove most of the source code which is already provided by BC. I would like to pull my modifications but as a lot of things have been modified, it's a lot of work and I do not have a lot of time actually. If somebody want to look at it I think that it could be a first step before creating different profiles as, after my modifications, the BC update is quite simple.

Best,
Jerome
