bother with secure options

Hi 
   
  I'm having some difficulty getting the secure option to work in my fop installation.
   
  I'm getting the message:

"Cannot find any provider supporting RC4"
  I was wondering if perhaps this could be due to the fop installation (from before I arrived on the project) was not compiled with encryption support?
   
  My question is: what error message would I get if fop was not compiled with encryption support?
   
  Secondly when I used the command line (another fop installation) I can get the 
  fop -nocopy to work even though there is no provider on the classpath. How come that works?
   
  Regards

Nope. It means that, at runtime, the JCE can't find a provider  
supporting RC4.

See: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.92/ 
pdfencryption.html#install_crypto

I think, if was compiled w/o crypto support, then with FOP Trunk, you  
would receive an error message like:
"PDF encryption requested but it is not available.
  Please make sure MD5 and RC4 algorithms are available."



Cheers,

Andreas
