Hello I have an application using POI to open many pdf documents and it appears to freeze on some of them. At first I thought it was password protection but it doesn't happen only to password protected pdf's
The error is included in the attached. Exception in thread "Consumer-2" java .lang.NoClassDefFoundErrro: org/bouncycastle/jce/provider/BouncyCastleProvider At org.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument.openProtection(PDDocument.java:905) I am looking at the code to catch the exception but I am puzzled why it locks at runtime and not propagate error and terminate application Thanks Charles
