+/**
+ * The <i>Service Provider Interface</i> (<b>SPI</b>)
+ * for the {@link CertStore CertStore} class. All <code>CertStore</code>
+ * implementations must include a class (the SPI class) that extends
+ * this class (<code>CertStoreSpi</code>), provides a constructor with
+ * a single argument of type <code>CertStoreParameters</code>, and implements
+ * all of its methods. In general, instances of this class should only be
+ * accessed through the <code>CertStore</code> class.
+ * For details, see the Java Cryptography Architecture.<br />
+ * <br />
+ * <b>Concurrent Access</b><br />
+ * <br />
+ * The public methods of all <code>CertStoreSpi</code> objects must be
+ * thread-safe. That is, multiple threads may concurrently invoke these
+ * methods on a single <code>CertStoreSpi</code> object (or more than one)
+ * with no ill effects. This allows a <code>CertPathBuilder</code> to search
+ * for a CRL while simultaneously searching for further certificates, for
+ * instance.<br />
+ * <br />
+ * Simple <code>CertStoreSpi</code> implementations will probably ensure
+ * thread safety by adding a <code>synchronized</code> keyword to their
+ * <code>engineGetCertificates</code> and <code>engineGetCRLs</code> methods.
+ * More sophisticated ones may allow truly concurrent access.
