The file that you sent me is corrupted. The examples in it
are not complete. Somebody must have modified them.

I just downloaded the JCE package myself and verified that
the examples in the user guide are complete and compile.

Somebody must have modified the user guide installed on
your system. Please download the JCE package again.

RSA DSI provides a toolkit called Jsafe, which contains
an RSA implementation in Java. (Sun is not allowed to supply
an RSA implementation in Java because of licensing restrictions.)

The next Jsafe version will be compatible with JCE. This means
that you will be able to use RSA via the JCE API methods (provided
that you have purchased Jsafe and registered their provider with JCE).
