/**

 * This interface encapsulates a single GSS-API principal entity. The

 * application obtains an implementation of this interface

 * through one of the <code>createName</code> methods that exist in the {@link

 * GSSManager GSSManager} class. Conceptually a GSSName contains many

 * representations of the entity or many primitive name elements, one for

 * each supported underlying mechanism. In GSS terminology, a GSSName that

 * contains an element from just one mechanism is called a Mechanism Name

 * (MN)<p>

 *

 * Since different authentication mechanisms may employ different

 * namespaces for identifying their principals, GSS-API's naming support is

 * necessarily complex in multi-mechanism environments (or even in some

 * single-mechanism environments where the underlying mechanism supports

 * multiple namespaces). Different name formats and their definitions are

 * identified with {@link Oid Oid's} and some standard types

 * based on the unique <code>Oid</code> of its name type.<p>

 *

 * Included below are code examples utilizing the <code>GSSName</code> interface.

 * The code below creates a <code>GSSName</code>, converts it to an MN, performs a

 * comparison, obtains a printable representation of the name, exports it

 * to a byte array and then re-imports to obtain a

 * new <code>GSSName</code>.<p>

 * <pre>

 *      GSSManager manager = GSSManager.getInstance();

 *

 *      // create a host based service name

 *      GSSName name = manager.createName("service@host",

 *                   GSSName.NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE);

 *

 *      Oid krb5 = new Oid("1.2.840.113554.1.2.2");

 *

 *      GSSName mechName = name.canonicalize(krb5);

 *

 *      // the above two steps are equivalent to the following

 *      GSSName mechName = manager.createName("service@host",

 *                      GSSName.NT_HOSTBASED_SERVICE, krb5);

 *

 *      // perform name comparison

 *      if (name.equals(mechName))

 *              print("Names are equals.");

 *

 *      // obtain textual representation of name and its printable

 *      // name type

 *      print(mechName.toString() +

 *                      mechName.getStringNameType().toString());

 *

 *      // export and re-import the name

 *      byte [] exportName = mechName.export();

 *

 *      // create a new name object from the exported buffer

 *      GSSName newName = manager.createName(exportName,

 *                      GSSName.NT_EXPORT_NAME);
