We plan to ship a product based on JDK 1.1.x early next year. I am
considering use of JCE 1.2 interfaces so I can write a provider using
exportable encryption mechanisms.

Should I be concerned about whether use of the JCE interfaces would
render the resulting system non-exportable? The potential exposure
would be that a foreign customer could de-compile our Java code and have
our classes use strong (non-exportable) encryption.
