/**
* <p>This class is used as an opaque representation of cryptographic
* parameters.</p>
*
* <p>An <code>AlgorithmParameters</code> object for managing the parameters
* for a particular algorithm can be obtained by calling one of the
* <code>getInstance()</code> factory methods (static methods that return
* instances of a given class).</p>
*
* <p>There are two ways to request such an implementation: by specifying
* either just an algorithm name, or both an algorithm name and a package
* provider.</p>
*
* <ul>
* <li>If just an algorithm name is specified, the system will determine if
* there is an AlgorithmParameters implementation for the algorithm requested
* available in the environment, and if there is more than one, if there is
* a preferred one.</li>
* <li>If both an algorithm name and a package provider are specified, the
* system will determine if there is an implementation in the package
* requested, and throw an exception if there is not.</li>
* </ul>
*
* <p>Once an <code>AlgorithmParameters</code> object is returned, it must be
* initialized via a call to <code>init()</code>, using an appropriate
* parameter specification or parameter encoding.</p>
*
* <p>A transparent parameter specification is obtained from an
* <code>AlgorithmParameters</code> object via a call to
* <code>getParameterSpec()</code>, and a byte encoding of the parameters is
* obtained via a call to <code>getEncoded()</code>.</p>
