/**
 * This class serves as a factory for other important
 * GSS-API classes and also provides information about the mechanisms that
 * are supported. It can create instances of classes
 * implementing the following three GSS-API interfaces: {@link
 * GSSName GSSName}, {@link GSSCredential GSSCredential}, and {@link
 * GSSContext GSSContext}. It also has methods to query for the list
 * of available mechanisms and the nametypes that each mechanism
 * supports.<p>
 *
 * An instance of the default <code>GSSManager</code> subclass
 * may be obtained through the static method {@link #getInstance()
 * getInstance}, but applications are free to instantiate other subclasses
 * of <code>GSSManager</code>. The default <code>GSSManager</code> instance
 * will support the Kerberos v5 GSS-API mechanism in addition to any
 * others. This mechanism is identified by the Oid "1.2.840.113554.1.2.2"
 * and is defined in RFC 1964.<p>
 *
 * A subclass extending the <code>GSSManager</code> abstract class may be
 * implemented  as a modular provider based layer that utilizes some well
 * known  service provider specification. The <code>GSSManager</code> API
 * allows the application to set provider preferences on
 * such an implementation. These methods also allow the implementation to
 * throw a well-defined exception in case provider based configuration is
 * not supported. Applications that expect to be portable should be aware
 * of this and recover cleanly by catching the exception.<p>
 *
 * It is envisioned that there will be three most common ways in which
 * providers will be used:<p>
 * <ol>
 * <li> The application does not care about what provider is used (the
 * default case).
 * <li> The application wants a particular provider to be used
 * preferentially, either for a particular mechanism or all the
 * time, irrespective of mechanism.
 * <li> The application wants to use the locally configured providers
 * as far as possible but if support is missing for one or more
 * mechanisms then it wants to fall back on its own provider.
 *</ol><p>
 *
 * The <code>GSSManager</code> class has two methods that enable these modes of
 * usage:  {@link #addProviderAtFront(Provider, Oid) addProviderAtFront} and
 * {@link #addProviderAtEnd(Provider, Oid) addProviderAtEnd}. These methods
 * have the effect of creating an ordered list of <i>&lt;provider,
 * oid&gt;</i> pairs  where each pair indicates a preference of provider
 * for a given oid.<p>
 *
 * It is important to note that there are certain interactions
 * between the different GSS-API objects that are created by a
 * GSSManager, where the provider that is used for a particular mechanism
 * might need to be consistent across all objects. For instance, if a
 * GSSCredential contains elements from a provider <i>p</i> for a mechanism
 * <i>m</i>, it should generally be passed in to a GSSContext that will use
 * provider <i>p</i> for the mechanism <i>m</i>. A simple rule of thumb
 * that will maximize portability is that objects created from different
 * GSSManager's should not be mixed, and if possible, a different
 * GSSManager instance should be created if the application wants to invoke
 * the <code>addProviderAtFront</code> method on a GSSManager that has
 * already created an object.<p>
 *
 *  Here is some sample code showing how the GSSManager might be used: <p>
 * <pre>
 *     GSSManager manager = GSSManager.getInstance();
 *
 *     Oid krb5Mechanism = new Oid("1.2.840.113554.1.2.2");
 *     Oid krb5PrincipalNameType = new Oid("1.2.840.113554.1.2.2.1");
 *
 *     // Identify who the client wishes to be
 *     GSSName userName = manager.createName("duke", GSSName.NT_USER_NAME);
 *
 *     // Identify the name of the server. This uses a Kerberos specific
 *     // name format.
 *     GSSName serverName = manager.createName("nfs/foo.sun.com",
 *                                             krb5PrincipalNameType);
 *
 *     // Acquire credentials for the user
 *     GSSCredential userCreds = manager.createCredential(userName,
 *                                             GSSCredential.DEFAULT_LIFETIME,
 *                                             krb5Mechanism,
 *                                             GSSCredential.INITIATE_ONLY);
 *
 *     // Instantiate and initialize a security context that will be
 *     // established with the server
 *     GSSContext context = manager.createContext(serverName,
 *                                                krb5Mechanism,
 *                                                userCreds,
 *                                                GSSContext.DEFAULT_LIFETIME);
 * </pre><p>
 *
 * The server side might use the following variation of this source:<p>
 *
 * <pre>
 *     // Acquire credentials for the server
 *     GSSCredential serverCreds = manager.createCredential(serverName,
 *                                             GSSCredential.DEFAULT_LIFETIME,
 *                                             krb5Mechanism,
 *                                             GSSCredential.ACCEPT_ONLY);
 *
 *     // Instantiate and initialize a security context that will
 *     // wait for an establishment request token from the client
 *     GSSContext context = manager.createContext(serverCreds);
 * </pre>

    /**
     * This method is used to indicate to the GSSManager that the
     * application would like a particular provider to be used ahead of all
     * others when support is desired for the given mechanism. When a value
     * of null is used instead of an <code>Oid</code> for the mechanism,
     * the GSSManager must use the indicated provider ahead of all others
     * no matter what the mechanism is. Only when the indicated provider
     * does not support the needed mechanism should the GSSManager move on
     * to a different provider.<p>
     *
     * Calling this method repeatedly preserves the older settings but
     * lowers them in preference thus forming an ordered list of provider
     * and <code>Oid</code> pairs that grows at the top.<p>
     *
     * Calling addProviderAtFront with a null <code>Oid</code> will remove
     * all previous preferences that were set for this provider in the
     * GSSManager instance. Calling addProviderAtFront with a non-null
     * <code>Oid</code> will remove any previous preference that was set
     * using this mechanism and this provider together.<p>
     *
     * If the GSSManager implementation does not support an SPI with a
     * pluggable provider architecture it should throw a GSSException with
     * the status code GSSException.UNAVAILABLE to indicate that the
     * operation is unavailable.<p>
     *
     * Suppose an application desired that the provider A always be checked
     * first when any mechanism is needed, it would call:<p>
     * <pre>
     *         GSSManager mgr = GSSManager.getInstance();
     *         // mgr may at this point have its own pre-configured list
     *         // of provider preferences. The following will prepend to
     *         // any such list:
     *
     *         mgr.addProviderAtFront(A, null);
     * </pre>
     * Now if it also desired that the mechanism of Oid m1 always be
     * obtained from the provider B before the previously set A was checked,
     * it would call:<p>
     * <pre>
     *         mgr.addProviderAtFront(B, m1);
     * </pre>
     * The GSSManager would then first check with B if m1 was needed. In
     * case B did not provide support for m1, the GSSManager would continue
     * on to check with A.  If any mechanism m2 is needed where m2 is
     * different from m1 then the GSSManager would skip B and check with A
     * directly.<p>
     *
     * Suppose at a later time the following call is made to the same
     * GSSManager instance:<p>
     * <pre>
     *         mgr.addProviderAtFront(B, null)
     * </pre>
     * then the previous setting with the pair (B, m1) is subsumed by this
     * and should be removed. Effectively the list of preferences now
     * becomes {(B, null), (A, null),
     *         ... //followed by the pre-configured list.<p>
     *
     * Please note, however, that the following call:
     * <pre>
     *         mgr.addProviderAtFront(A, m3)
     * </pre>
     * does not subsume the previous setting of (A, null) and the list will
     * effectively become {(A, m3), (B, null), (A, null), ...}
     *
