0N/A/**
0N/A *
0N/A * The <i>Service Provider Interface</i> (<b>SPI</b>)
0N/A * for the {@link CertPathValidator CertPathValidator} class. All
0N/A * <code>CertPathValidator</code> implementations must include a class (the
0N/A * SPI class) that extends this class (<code>CertPathValidatorSpi</code>)
0N/A * and implements all of its methods. In general, instances of this class
0N/A * should only be accessed through the <code>CertPathValidator</code> class.
0N/A * For details, see the Java Cryptography Architecture.
0N/A * <p>
0N/A * <b>Concurrent Access</b>
0N/A * <p>
0N/A * Instances of this class need not be protected against concurrent
0N/A * access from multiple threads. Threads that need to access a single
0N/A * <code>CertPathValidatorSpi</code> instance concurrently should synchronize
0N/A * amongst themselves and provide the necessary locking before calling the
0N/A * wrapping <code>CertPathValidator</code> object.
0N/A * <p>
0N/A * However, implementations of <code>CertPathValidatorSpi</code> may still
0N/A * encounter concurrency issues, since multiple threads each
0N/A * manipulating a different <code>CertPathValidatorSpi</code> instance need not
0N/A * synchronize.
