    31 Provides classes and interfaces for key specifications and algorithm
       
    32 parameter specifications.
       
    33 
       
    34 <p>A key specification is a transparent representation of the key
       
    35 material that constitutes a key. A key may be specified in an
       
    36 algorithm-specific way, or in an algorithm-independent encoding format
       
    37 (such as ASN.1).  This package contains key specifications for
       
    38 Diffie-Hellman public and private keys, as well as key specifications for DES,
       
    39 Triple DES, and PBE secret keys.
       
    40 
       
    41 <p>An algorithm parameter specification is a transparent representation
       
    42 of the sets of parameters used with an algorithm. This package contains
       
    43 algorithm parameter specifications for parameters used with the
       
    44 Diffie-Hellman, DES, Triple DES, PBE, RC2 and RC5 algorithms.
