Can't import as maven module #24

Closed adimitorv closed 4 years ago

adimitorv commented 5 years ago

Hi, great work, but I can not import and build the project. I import it as maven module, but I get:

Dependency 'nl.dannyvanheumen:joldilocks:1.0-SNAPSHOT' not found

Same with https://github.com/cobratbq/otr4j

Thanks!

Hi, thanks for asking. I reminded myself multiple times but in the end forgot to make this clear. You can find the dependency here: https://gitlab.com/cobratbq/joldilocks

To clarify (and I'll also update the README.md to make this clear) this is a temporary dependency that complements the lack of Ed448 support in Java at the moment. The library is not more than beginner-level Ed448 implementation but it suffices as Proof-of-Concept that the functionality works. It does not, however, provide you any of the operational guarantees that you would want from a release-quality security library. I'm in the process of moving to BouncyCastle but it doesn't provide all functionality yet. In the end the library may be in to assist unit testing at most. Note that you need Java9+ to compile the library. Once joldilocks is out, we should be able to return to supporting otr4j from Java 7 and up.

I've uploaded joldilocks to otr4j/joldilocks to make it discoverable.
