How to set up BouncyCastle

I'm having some trouble setting up bouncycastle.

I've downloaded the jar, put it in Java\jre1.8.0_271\lib\ext, added it to java.security in the providers list and added it to the classpath.

When trying import org.bouncycastle... I get the message 'bouncycastle cannot be resolved'

I have also tried Security.addProvider(new org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCasytleProvider()); but get the same error.

What am I doing wrong?

It also has to be in your class path.

If you're compiling building from command line use the -cp parameter and the lib/ext folder of the JRE.

If you're building in an IDE there is usually somewhere in the menus that lets you add folders to the class path. In IntelliJ it is in File-->Project Structure-->Modules and press the + sign.
