/**
* The service provider interface (SPI) for <code>ImageReader</code>s.
* For more information on service provider classes, see the class comment
* for the <code>IIORegistry</code> class.
*
* <p> Each <code>ImageReaderSpi</code> provides several types of information
* about the <code>ImageReader</code> class with which it is associated.
*
* <p> The name of the vendor who defined the SPI class and a
* brief description of the class are available via the
* <code>getVendorName</code>, <code>getDescription</code>,
* and <code>getVersion</code> methods.
* These methods may be internationalized to provide locale-specific
* output. These methods are intended mainly to provide short,
* human-readable information that might be used to organize a pop-up
* menu or other list.
*
* <p> Lists of format names, file suffixes, and MIME types associated
* with the service may be obtained by means of the
* <code>getFormatNames</code>, <code>getFileSuffixes</code>, and
* <code>getMIMETypes</code> methods. These methods may be used to
* identify candidate <code>ImageReader</code>s for decoding a
* particular file or stream based on manual format selection, file
* naming, or MIME associations (for example, when accessing a file
* over HTTP or as an email attachment).
*
* <p> A more reliable way to determine which <code>ImageReader</code>s
* are likely to be able to parse a particular data stream is provided
* by the <code>canDecodeInput</code> method. This methods allows the
* service provider to inspect the actual stream contents.
*
* <p> Finally, an instance of the <code>ImageReader</code> class
* associated with this service provider may be obtained by calling
* the <code>createReaderInstance</code> method. Any heavyweight
* initialization, such as the loading of native libraries or creation
* of large tables, should be deferred at least until the first
* invocation of this method.
*
* @see IIORegistry
* @see javax.imageio.ImageReader
