/**
 * <p>The <code>KeyPairGenerator</code> class is used to generate pairs of
 * public and private keys. Key pair generators are constructed using the
 * <code>getInstance()</code> factory methods (static methods that return
 * instances of a given class).</p>
 *
 * <p>A Key pair generator for a particular algorithm creates a public/private
 * key pair that can be used with this algorithm. It also associates
 * algorithm-specific parameters with each of the generated keys.</p>
 *
 * <p>There are two ways to generate a key pair: in an algorithm-independent
 * manner, and in an algorithm-specific manner. The only difference between the
 * two is the initialization of the object:</p>
 *
 * <ul>
 *    <li><b>Algorithm-Independent Initialization</b><br/>
 *    All key pair generators share the concepts of a <i>keysize</i> and a
 *    <i>source of randomness</i>. The <i>keysize</i> is interpreted differently
 *    for different algorithms (e.g., in the case of the <i>DSA</i> algorithm,
 *    the <i>keysize</i> corresponds to the length of the modulus). There is an
 *    <code>initialize()</code> method in this <code>KeyPairGenerator</code>
 *    class that takes these two universally shared types of arguments. There
 *    is also one that takes just a <i>keysize</i> argument, and uses the
 *    {@link SecureRandom} implementation of the highest-priority installed
 *    provider as the <i>source of randomness</i>. (If none of the installed
 *    providers supply an implementation of {@link SecureRandom}, a
 *    system-provided source of randomness is used.)<br/><br/>
 *
 *    Since no other parameters are specified when you call the above
 *    algorithm-independent initialize methods, it is up to the provider what
 *    to do about the algorithm-specific parameters (if any) to be associated
 *    with each of the keys.<br/><br/>
 *
 *    If the algorithm is the <i>DSA</i> algorithm, and the <i>keysize</i>
 *    (modulus size) is <code>512</code>, <code>768</code>, or <code>1024</code>,
 *    then the <b>GNU</b> provider uses a set of precomputed values for the
 *    <code>p</code>, <code>q</code>, and <code>g</code> parameters. If the
 *    <i>modulus size</i> is not one of the above values, the <b>GNU</b>
 *    provider creates a new set of parameters. Other providers might have
 *    precomputed parameter sets for more than just the three modulus sizes
 *    mentioned above. Still others might not have a list of precomputed
 *    parameters at all and instead always create new parameter sets.<br/></li>
 *
 *    <li><b>Algorithm-Specific Initialization</b><br/>
 *    For situations where a set of algorithm-specific parameters already
 *    exists (e.g., so-called <i>community parameters</i> in <i>DSA</i>), there
 *    are two initialize methods that have an {@link AlgorithmParameterSpec}
 *    argument. One also has a {@link SecureRandom} argument, while the the
 *    other uses the {@link SecureRandom} implementation of the highest-priority
 *    installed provider as the source of randomness. (If none of the installed
 *    providers supply an implementation of {@link SecureRandom}, a
 *    system-provided source of randomness is used.)</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>In case the client does not explicitly initialize the
 * <code>KeyPairGenerator</code> (via a call to an initialize method), each
 * provider must supply (and document) a default initialization. For example,
 * the <b>GNU</b> provider uses a default modulus size (keysize) of
 * <code>1024</code> bits.</p>
 *
 * <p>Note that this class is abstract and extends from {@link
 * KeyPairGeneratorSpi} for historical reasons. Application developers should
 * only take notice of the methods defined in this <code>KeyPairGenerator</code>
 * class; all the methods in the superclass are intended for cryptographic
 * service providers who wish to supply their own implementations of key pair
 * generators.</p>
