/**@class java.security.KeyFactorySpi
@extends java.lang.Object
This class defines the <i>Service Provider Interface</i> (<b>SPI</b>)
for the {@code KeyFactory} class.
All the abstract methods in this class must be implemented by each
cryptographic service provider who wishes to supply the implementation
of a key factory for a particular algorithm.
<P> Key factories are used to convert <I>keys</I> (opaque
cryptographic keys of type {@code Key}) into <I>key specifications</I>
(transparent representations of the underlying key material), and vice
versa.
<P> Key factories are bi-directional. That is, they allow you to build an
opaque key object from a given key specification (key material), or to
retrieve the underlying key material of a key object in a suitable format.
<P> Multiple compatible key specifications may exist for the same key.
For example, a DSA public key may be specified using
{@code DSAPublicKeySpec} or
{@code X509EncodedKeySpec}. A key factory can be used to translate
between compatible key specifications.
<P> A provider should document all the key specifications supported by its
key factory.
