/**
 * <p>Factory to create JMX API connector clients.  There
 * are no instances of this class.</p>
 *
 * <p>Connections are usually made using the {@link
 * #connect(JMXServiceURL) connect} method of this class.  More
 * advanced applications can separate the creation of the connector
 * client, using {@link #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL, Map)
 * newJMXConnector} and the establishment of the connection itself, using
 * {@link JMXConnector#connect(Map)}.</p>
 *
 * <p>Each client is created by an instance of {@link
 * JMXConnectorProvider}.  This instance is found as follows.  Suppose
 * the given {@link JMXServiceURL} looks like
 * <code>"service:jmx:<em>protocol</em>:<em>remainder</em>"</code>.
 * Then the factory will attempt to find the appropriate {@link
 * JMXConnectorProvider} for <code><em>protocol</em></code>.  Each
 * occurrence of the character <code>+</code> or <code>-</code> in
 * <code><em>protocol</em></code> is replaced by <code>.</code> or
 * <code>_</code>, respectively.</p>
 *
 * <p>A <em>provider package list</em> is searched for as follows:</p>
 *
 * <ol>
 *
 * <li>If the <code>environment</code> parameter to {@link
 * #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL, Map) newJMXConnector} contains the
 * key <code>jmx.remote.protocol.provider.pkgs</code> then the
 * associated value is the provider package list.
 *
 * <li>Otherwise, if the system property
 * <code>jmx.remote.protocol.provider.pkgs</code> exists, then its value
 * is the provider package list.
 *
 * <li>Otherwise, there is no provider package list.
 *
 * </ol>
 *
 * <p>The provider package list is a string that is interpreted as a
 * list of non-empty Java package names separated by vertical bars
 * (<code>|</code>).  If the string is empty, then so is the provider
 * package list.  If the provider package list is not a String, or if
 * it contains an element that is an empty string, a {@link
 * JMXProviderException} is thrown.</p>
 *
 * <p>If the provider package list exists and is not empty, then for
 * each element <code><em>pkg</em></code> of the list, the factory
 * will attempt to load the class
 *
 * <blockquote>
 * <code><em>pkg</em>.<em>protocol</em>.ClientProvider</code>
 * </blockquote>

 * <p>If the <code>environment</code> parameter to {@link
 * #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL, Map) newJMXConnector} contains the
 * key <code>jmx.remote.protocol.provider.class.loader</code> then the
 * associated value is the class loader to use to load the provider.
 * If the associated value is not an instance of {@link
 * java.lang.ClassLoader}, an {@link
 * java.lang.IllegalArgumentException} is thrown.</p>
 *
 * <p>If the <code>jmx.remote.protocol.provider.class.loader</code>
 * key is not present in the <code>environment</code> parameter, the
 * calling thread's context class loader is used.</p>
 *
 * <p>If the attempt to load this class produces a {@link
 * ClassNotFoundException}, the search for a handler continues with
 * the next element of the list.</p>
 *
 * <p>Otherwise, a problem with the provider found is signalled by a
 * {@link JMXProviderException} whose {@link
 * JMXProviderException#getCause() <em>cause</em>} indicates the underlying
 * exception, as follows:</p>
 *
 * <ul>
 *
 * <li>if the attempt to load the class produces an exception other
 * than <code>ClassNotFoundException</code>, that is the
 * <em>cause</em>;
 *
 * <li>if {@link Class#newInstance()} for the class produces an
 * exception, that is the <em>cause</em>.
 *
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>If no provider is found by the above steps, including the
 * default case where there is no provider package list, then the
 * implementation will use its own provider for
 * <code><em>protocol</em></code>, or it will throw a
 * <code>MalformedURLException</code> if there is none.  An
 * implementation may choose to find providers by other means.  For
 * example, it may support the <a
 * href="{@docRoot}/../technotes/guides/jar/jar.html#Service%20Provider">
 * JAR conventions for service providers</a>, where the service
 * interface is <code>JMXConnectorProvider</code>.</p>
 *
 * <p>Every implementation must support the RMI connector protocol with
 * the default RMI transport, specified with string <code>rmi</code>.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>Once a provider is found, the result of the
 * <code>newJMXConnector</code> method is the result of calling {@link
 * JMXConnectorProvider#newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL,Map) newJMXConnector}
 * on the provider.</p>
 *
 * <p>The <code>Map</code> parameter passed to the
 * <code>JMXConnectorProvider</code> is a new read-only
 * <code>Map</code> that contains all the entries that were in the
 * <code>environment</code> parameter to {@link
 * #newJMXConnector(JMXServiceURL,Map)
 * JMXConnectorFactory.newJMXConnector}, if there was one.
 * Additionally, if the
 * <code>jmx.remote.protocol.provider.class.loader</code> key is not
 * present in the <code>environment</code> parameter, it is added to
 * the new read-only <code>Map</code>.  The associated value is the
 * calling thread's context class loader.</p>
