/**
* <p>This is an interface of abstract methods for managing a
* variety of identity certificates.
* An identity certificate is a guarantee by a principal that
* a public key is that of another principal. (A principal represents
* an entity such as an individual user, a group, or a corporation.)
*
* <p>In particular, this interface is intended to be a common
* abstraction for constructs that have different formats but
* important common uses. For example, different types of
* certificates, such as X.509 certificates and PGP certificates,
* share general certificate functionality (the need to encode and
* decode certificates) and some types of information, such as a
* public key, the principal whose key it is, and the guarantor
* guaranteeing that the public key is that of the specified
* principal. So an implementation of X.509 certificates and an
* implementation of PGP certificates can both utilize the Certificate
* interface, even though their formats and additional types and
* amounts of information stored are different.
*
* <p><b>Important</b>: This interface is useful for cataloging and
* grouping objects sharing certain common uses. It does not have any
* semantics of its own. In particular, a Certificate object does not
* make any statement as to the <i>validity</i> of the binding. It is
* the duty of the application implementing this interface to verify
* the certificate and satisfy itself of its validity.
*
* @author Benjamin Renaud
* @since 1.1
* @deprecated A new certificate handling package is created in the Java platform.
* This Certificate interface is entirely deprecated and
* is here to allow for a smooth transition to the new
* package.
* @see java.security.cert.Certificate
