/**
 * This class defines the <i>Service Provider Interface</i> (<b>SPI</b>)
 * for the <code>CertificateFactory</code> class.
 * All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each
 * cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation
 * of a certificate factory for a particular certificate type, e.g., X.509.
 *
 * <p>Certificate factories are used to generate certificate, certification path
 * (<code>CertPath</code>) and certificate revocation list (CRL) objects from 
 * their encodings.
 *
 * <p>A certificate factory for X.509 must return certificates that are an
 * instance of <code>java.security.cert.X509Certificate</code>, and CRLs
 * that are an instance of <code>java.security.cert.X509CRL</code>.
