Spring Bean for PGP file encryption
//
// This is a variation of the example found in the Bouncy Castle Java examples on github.
// I'm using a public key provided by 3rd party to encrypt a file before sending to them. They
// have the private key so it's a one-way system, I have no need for a decrypt method. This is
// being used in a Spring Boot app, hence the annotations.

SingingBush / Reviving Dead Code (trying to) - jEnesis Emulator
Created December 20, 2018 02:24
A short story about the difficulties in using unmaintained software (jEnesis)
Today I did a quick google search to see if any emulators had been written in Java. As it urns out there was a Sega Megadrive emulator called [jEnesis](http://www.workingdesign.de/projects/jenesis.php) that was written by Stephan Dittrich and released back in 2006.
Most of the site is just dead links now and I wasn't able to find a working download there but I was able to track down a build of the project else where. Unfortunately however, the build I found was version 0.0.5 from May 2006 so it doesn't include the changes that went into the final v0.1.0 that was supposed to have been built in June 2006 (perhaps it was never made public).
The jEnesis.jar that I downloaded depends on a very old [lwjgl](https://www.lwjgl.org/). The timestamp for the file was December 2005 which would make it [version 0.99](https://sourceforge.net/projects/java-game-lib/files/Official%20Releases/LWJGL%200.99/).
This old lwjgl only supported 32-bit systems, so running `java -cp jEnesis.jar;lwjgl.jar jenesis.Main` would throw a

A short article about the lack a standard API for Bluetooth in Java SE

Bluetooth (or the lack of) on Java

Java SE has never had support for bluetooth, the closest thing to a standard is JABWT (Java APIs for Bluetooth Wireless Technology) defined in JSR-82 which is actually for Java ME (Micro Edition).

JSR-82 provides the specification for the javax.bluetooth and javax.obex packages and would allow for code somewhat like:

import javax.bluetooth.BluetoothStateException;
import javax.bluetooth.DeviceClass;
