/**
 * This class represents a storage facility for cryptographic
 * keys and certificates.
 *
 * <p> A <code>KeyStore</code> manages different types of entries.
 * Each type of entry implements the <code>KeyStore.Entry</code> interface.
 * Three basic <code>KeyStore.Entry</code> implementations are provided:
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li><b>KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry</b>
 * <p> This type of entry holds a cryptographic <code>PrivateKey</code>,
 * which is optionally stored in a protected format to prevent
 * unauthorized access.  It is also accompanied by a certificate chain
 * for the corresponding public key.
 *
 * <p> Private keys and certificate chains are used by a given entity for
 * self-authentication. Applications for this authentication include software
 * distribution organizations which sign JAR files as part of releasing
 * and/or licensing software.
 *
 * <li><b>KeyStore.SecretKeyEntry</b>
 * <p> This type of entry holds a cryptographic <code>SecretKey</code>,
 * which is optionally stored in a protected format to prevent
 * unauthorized access.
 *
 * <li><b>KeyStore.TrustedCertificateEntry</b>
 * <p> This type of entry contains a single public key <code>Certificate</code>
 * belonging to another party. It is called a <i>trusted certificate</i>
 * because the keystore owner trusts that the public key in the certificate
 * indeed belongs to the identity identified by the <i>subject</i> (owner)
 * of the certificate.
 *
 * <p>This type of entry can be used to authenticate other parties.
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p> Each entry in a keystore is identified by an "alias" string. In the
 * case of private keys and their associated certificate chains, these strings
 * distinguish among the different ways in which the entity may authenticate
 * itself. For example, the entity may authenticate itself using different
 * certificate authorities, or using different public key algorithms.
 *
 * <p> Whether aliases are case sensitive is implementation dependent. In order
 * to avoid problems, it is recommended not to use aliases in a KeyStore that
 * only differ in case.
 *
 * <p> Whether keystores are persistent, and the mechanisms used by the
 * keystore if it is persistent, are not specified here. This allows
 * use of a variety of techniques for protecting sensitive (e.g., private or
 * secret) keys. Smart cards or other integrated cryptographic engines
 * (SafeKeyper) are one option, and simpler mechanisms such as files may also
 * be used (in a variety of formats).
 *
 * <p> Typical ways to request a KeyStore object include
 * relying on the default type and providing a specific keystore type.
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li>To rely on the default type:
 * <pre>
 *    KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());
 * </pre>
 * The system will return a keystore implementation for the default type.
 * <p>
 *
 * <li>To provide a specific keystore type:
 * <pre>
 *      KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance("JKS");
 * </pre>
 * The system will return the most preferred implementation of the
 * specified keystore type available in the environment. <p>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p> Before a keystore can be accessed, it must be
 * {@link #load(java.io.InputStream, char[]) loaded}.
 * <pre>
 *    KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance(KeyStore.getDefaultType());
 *
 *    // get user password and file input stream
 *    char[] password = getPassword();
 *
 *    java.io.FileInputStream fis = null;
 *    try {
 *        fis = new java.io.FileInputStream("keyStoreName");
 *        ks.load(fis, password);
 *    } finally {
 *        if (fis != null) {
 *            fis.close();
 *        }
 *    }
 * </pre>
 *
 * To create an empty keystore using the above <code>load</code> method,
 * pass <code>null</code> as the <code>InputStream</code> argument.
 *
 * <p> Once the keystore has been loaded, it is possible
 * to read existing entries from the keystore, or to write new entries
 * into the keystore:
 * <pre>
 *    // get my private key
 *    KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry pkEntry = (KeyStore.PrivateKeyEntry)
 *        ks.getEntry("privateKeyAlias", password);
 *    PrivateKey myPrivateKey = pkEntry.getPrivateKey();
 *
 *    // save my secret key
 *    javax.crypto.SecretKey mySecretKey;
 *    KeyStore.SecretKeyEntry skEntry =
 *        new KeyStore.SecretKeyEntry(mySecretKey);
 *    ks.setEntry("secretKeyAlias", skEntry,
 *        new KeyStore.PasswordProtection(password));
 *
 *    // store away the keystore
 *    java.io.FileOutputStream fos = null;
 *    try {
 *        fos = new java.io.FileOutputStream("newKeyStoreName");
 *        ks.store(fos, password);
 *    } finally {
 *        if (fos != null) {
 *            fos.close();
 *        }
 *    }
 * </pre>
 *
 * Note that although the same password may be used to
 * load the keystore, to protect the private key entry,
 * to protect the secret key entry, and to store the keystore
 * (as is shown in the sample code above),
 * different passwords or other protection parameters
 * may also be used.
