/**
 * A simple service-provider lookup mechanism.  A <i>service</i> is a
 * well-known set of interfaces and (usually abstract) classes.  A <i>service
 * provider</i> is a specific implementation of a service.  The classes in a
 * provider typically implement the interfaces and subclass the classes defined
 * in the service itself.  Service providers may be installed in an
 * implementation of the Java platform in the form of extensions, that is, jar
 * files placed into any of the usual extension directories.  Providers may
 * also be made available by adding them to the applet or application class
 * path or by some other platform-specific means.
 *
 * <p> In this lookup mechanism a service is represented by an interface or an
 * abstract class.  (A concrete class may be used, but this is not
 * recommended.)  A provider of a given service contains one or more concrete
 * classes that extend this <i>service class</i> with data and code specific to
 * the provider.  This <i>provider class</i> will typically not be the entire
 * provider itself but rather a proxy that contains enough information to
 * decide whether the provider is able to satisfy a particular request together
 * with code that can create the actual provider on demand.  The details of
 * provider classes tend to be highly service-specific; no single class or
 * interface could possibly unify them, so no such class has been defined.  The
 * only requirement enforced here is that provider classes must have a
 * zero-argument constructor so that they may be instantiated during lookup.
 *
 * <p> A service provider identifies itself by placing a provider-configuration
 * file in the resource directory <tt>META-INF/services</tt>.  The file's name
 * should consist of the fully-qualified name of the abstract service class.
 * The file should contain a list of fully-qualified concrete provider-class
 * names, one per line.  Space and tab characters surrounding each name, as
 * well as blank lines, are ignored.  The comment character is <tt>'#'</tt>
 * (<tt>0x23</tt>); on each line all characters following the first comment
 * character are ignored.  The file must be encoded in UTF-8.
 *
 * <p> If a particular concrete provider class is named in more than one
 * configuration file, or is named in the same configuration file more than
 * once, then the duplicates will be ignored.  The configuration file naming a
 * particular provider need not be in the same jar file or other distribution
 * unit as the provider itself.  The provider must be accessible from the same
 * class loader that was initially queried to locate the configuration file;
 * note that this is not necessarily the class loader that found the file.
 *
 * <p> <b>Example:</b> Suppose we have a service class named
 * <tt>java.io.spi.CharCodec</tt>.  It has two abstract methods:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   public abstract CharEncoder getEncoder(String encodingName);
 *   public abstract CharDecoder getDecoder(String encodingName);
 * </pre>
 *
 * Each method returns an appropriate object or <tt>null</tt> if it cannot
 * translate the given encoding.  Typical <tt>CharCodec</tt> providers will
 * support more than one encoding.
 *
 * <p> If <tt>sun.io.StandardCodec</tt> is a provider of the <tt>CharCodec</tt>
 * service then its jar file would contain the file
 * <tt>META-INF/services/java.io.spi.CharCodec</tt>.  This file would contain
 * the single line:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   sun.io.StandardCodec    # Standard codecs for the platform
 * </pre>
 *
 * To locate an encoder for a given encoding name, the internal I/O code would
 * do something like this:
 *
 * <pre>
 *   CharEncoder getEncoder(String encodingName) {
 *       Iterator ps = Service.providers(CharCodec.class);
 *       while (ps.hasNext()) {
 *           CharCodec cc = (CharCodec)ps.next();
 *           CharEncoder ce = cc.getEncoder(encodingName);
 *           if (ce != null)
 *               return ce;
 *       }
 *       return null;
 *   }
 * </pre>
 *
 * The provider-lookup mechanism always executes in the security context of the
 * caller.  Trusted system code should typically invoke the methods in this
 * class from within a privileged security context.
