15  * This interface encapsulates the GSS-API security context and provides
16  * the security services that are available over the context. Security
17  * contexts are established between peers using locally acquired
18  * credentials. Multiple contexts may exist simultaneously between a pair
19  * of peers, using the same or different set of credentials. GSS-API
20  * functions in a manner independent of the underlying transport protocol
21  * and depends on its calling application to transport the tokens that are
22  * generated by the security context between the peers.<p>
23  *
24  * If the caller instantiates the context using the default
25  * <code>GSSManager</code> instance, then the Kerberos v5 GSS-API mechanism
26  * is guaranteed to be available for context establishment. This mechanism
27  * is identified by the Oid "1.2.840.113554.1.2.2" and is defined in RFC
28  * 1964.<p>
29  *
30  * Before the context establishment phase is initiated, the context
31  * initiator may request specific characteristics desired of the
32  * established context. Not all underlying mechanisms support all
33  * characteristics that a caller might desire. After the context is
34  * established, the caller can check the actual characteristics and services
35  * offered by that context by means of various query methods. When using
36  * the Kerberos v5 GSS-API mechanism offered by the default
37  * <code>GSSManager</code> instance, all optional services will be
38  * available locally. They are mutual authentication, credential
39  * delegation, confidentiality and integrity protection, and per-message
40  * replay detection and sequencing. Note that in the GSS-API, message integrity
41  * is a prerequisite for message confidentiality.<p>
42  *
43  * The context establishment occurs in a loop where the
44  * initiator calls {@link #initSecContext(byte[], int, int) initSecContext}
45  * and the acceptor calls {@link #acceptSecContext(byte[], int, int)
46  * acceptSecContext} until the context is established. While in this loop
47  * the <code>initSecContext</code> and <code>acceptSecContext</code>
48  * methods produce tokens that the application sends over to the peer. The
49  * peer passes any such token as input to its <code>acceptSecContext</code>
50  * or <code>initSecContext</code> as the case may be.<p>
51  *
52  * During the context establishment phase, the {@link
53  * #isProtReady() isProtReady} method may be called to determine if the
54  * context can be used for the per-message operations of {@link
55  * #wrap(byte[], int, int, MessageProp) wrap} and {@link #getMIC(byte[],
56  * int, int, MessageProp) getMIC}. This allows applications to use
57  * per-message operations on contexts which aren't yet fully
58  * established.<p>
59  *
60  * After the context has been established or the <code>isProtReady</code>
61  * method returns <code>true</code>, the query routines can be invoked to
62  * determine the actual characteristics and services of the established
63  * context. The application can also start using the per-message methods
64  * of {@link #wrap(byte[], int, int, MessageProp) wrap} and
65  * {@link #getMIC(byte[], int, int, MessageProp) getMIC} to obtain
66  * cryptographic operations on application supplied data.<p>
67  *
68  * When the context is no longer needed, the application should call
69  * {@link #dispose() dispose} to release any system resources the context
70  * may be using.<p>
71  *
72  * A security context typically maintains sequencing and replay detection
73  * information about the tokens it processes. Therefore, the sequence in
74  * which any tokens are presented to this context for processing can be
75  * important. Also note that none of the methods in this interface are
76  * synchronized. Therefore, it is not advisable to share a
77  * <code>GSSContext</code> among several threads unless some application
78  * level synchronization is in place.<p>
79  *
80  * Finally, different mechanism providers might place different security
81  * restrictions on using GSS-API contexts. These will be documented by the
82  * mechanism provider. The application will need to ensure that it has the
83  * appropriate permissions if such checks are made in the mechanism layer.<p>
84  *
85  * The example code presented below demonstrates the usage of the
86  * <code>GSSContext</code> interface for the initiating peer. Different
87  * operations on the <code>GSSContext</code> object are presented,
88  * including: object instantiation, setting of desired flags, context
89  * establishment, query of actual context flags, per-message operations on
90  * application data, and finally context deletion.<p>

94  * // and the implementation specific default mechanism
95  * GSSManager manager ...
