30/**
31 * An exception indicating one of a variety of problems retrieving
32 * certificates and CRLs from a <code>CertStore</code>.
33 * <p>
34 * A <code>CertStoreException</code> provides support for wrapping
35 * exceptions. The {@link #getCause getCause} method returns the throwable,
36 * if any, that caused this exception to be thrown.
37 * <p>
38 * <b>Concurrent Access</b>
39 * <p>
40 * Unless otherwise specified, the methods defined in this class are not
41 * thread-safe. Multiple threads that need to access a single
42 * object concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and
43 * provide the necessary locking. Multiple threads each manipulating
44 * separate objects need not synchronize.
