Hello,

I am trying to encrypt a cxf web-service request using the RSA-OAEP
algorithm because it is required on the endpoint side (Microsoft).  I
provide the "encryptionSymAlgorithm" as the corresponding URI (
http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#rsa-oaep-mgf1p) and set the
"org.apache.ws.security.crypto.provider" to
org.apache.ws.security.components.crypto.Merlin.  I am using the latest
WSS4j, version 1.5.7.

The first issue I received was a NullPointerException in WSSecEncrypt.java
trying to use a KeyGenerator that was null.  It seems like this was a bug
that Dan Kulp triaged in the post:

I have checked out trunk which is building the latest 1.6 SNAPSHOT since I
noticed that a fix to WSSecEncrypt.java, to use a JCEMapper, was applied.
The problem is that once I build the trunk version of wss4j (using java
1.6), I am missing the Merlin provider so I'm not sure what to use for the
"org.apache.ws.security.crypto.provider" property.

How do I use the crypto provider under Java 1.6?

Also, I've noticed that I would have to recompile CXF to work with the trunk
version of WSS4j (Vector -> List type change).  Am I going down the right
path to make WSS4j work with RSA-OAEP?

Thanks in advance,
Tony
