Extends Key
A public key. this interface contains no methods or constants. it merely serves to group (and provide type safety for) all public key interfaces. note: The specialized public key interfaces extend this interface. see, for example, the DSAPublicKey interface in java. security. interfaces. public key. This interface does not contain any methods and constants. Only used to combine all public key interfaces (providing type security ).
Note: a special public key interface inherits this interface. For example, DSAPublicKey in java. security. interfaces.
