Why do people use bouncycastle instead of Java’s built in JCE provider? What is the difference?
Why do people use bouncycastle instead of Java Cryptography Extension? What is the difference? Answer BouncyCastle has many more cipher suites and algorithms than the default JCE provided by Sun.

Java – Collections.sort() performance
I’m using Collections.sort() to sort a LinkedList whose elements implements Comparable interface, so they are sorted in a natural order. In the javadoc documentation its said this method uses mergesort algorithm which has n*log(n) performance. My question is if there is a more efficient algorithm to sort my LinkedList? The size of that list could be very high and sort
Is it possible to add JPA annotation to superclass instance variables?
I am creating entities that are the same for two different tables. In order do table mappings etc. different for the two entities but only have the rest of the code in one place – an abstract superclass.
