high level, general purpose Java cryptographic library

General-purpose Java cryptograhic library, which complements the Bouncy Castle libraries, that has the following design goals:

 * Flexible JCE provider. Prefers the Bouncy Castle Java Provider, but
   can fall back to other providers defined in the environment for
   algorithms not implemented by BC.
 * Ease of use for common cryptographic operations. A one liner
   highlights this well; the following prints the MD5 hash of a password
   as a string of HEX characters:
   System.out.println(new MD5().digest(passBytes, new HexConverter()));
 * Convenient and performant handling of cryptographic operations on
   large data streams.
 * Support for base-64 and hexadecimal encoding of ciphertext input/output.
 * Support for I/O operations on cryptographic primitives including
   generating and writing symmetric encryption keys, public/private key
   pairs, and X.509 certificates. Both PEM and DER encoding is handled
   conveniently.
 * Command line interface for each class of cryptographic operation
   (digest, symmetric encryption, public-key encryption, message signing,
   etc). A command line interface for keystore operations is also
   included, which is notable as it supports features above and beyond
   the Java keytool utility.

It is important to note that no cryptographic algorithms are implemented; Bouncy Castle provides all cryptographic algorithms where required.
