/**
* An interface to an object capable of generating DSA key pairs.
*
* <p>The {@code initialize} methods may each be called any number
* of times. If no {@code initialize} method is called on a
* DSAKeyPairGenerator, the default is to generate 1024-bit keys, using
* precomputed p, q and g parameters and an instance of SecureRandom as
* the random bit source.
*
* <p>Users wishing to indicate DSA-specific parameters, and to generate a key
* pair suitable for use with the DSA algorithm typically
*
* <ol>
*
* <li>Get a key pair generator for the DSA algorithm by calling the
* KeyPairGenerator {@code getInstance} method with "DSA"
* as its argument.
*
* <li>Initialize the generator by casting the result to a DSAKeyPairGenerator
* and calling one of the
* {@code initialize} methods from this DSAKeyPairGenerator interface.
*
* <li>Generate a key pair by calling the {@code generateKeyPair}
* method from the KeyPairGenerator class.
*
* </ol>
*
* <p>Note: it is not always necessary to do do algorithm-specific
* initialization for a DSA key pair generator. That is, it is not always
* necessary to call an {@code initialize} method in this interface.
* Algorithm-independent initialization using the {@code initialize} method
* in the KeyPairGenerator
* interface is all that is needed when you accept defaults for algorithm-specific
* parameters.
*
* <p>Note: Some earlier implementations of this interface may not support
* larger sizes of DSA parameters such as 2048 and 3072-bit.
