/**
 * A registry for service provider instances.
 *
 * <p> 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 interface or subclass the class defined by the
 * service itself.
 *
 * <p> Service providers are stored in one or more <i>categories</i>,
 * each of which is defined by a class of interface (described by a
 * <code>Class</code> object) that all of its members must implement.
 * The set of categories may be changed dynamically.
 *
 * <p> Only a single instance of a given leaf class (that is, the
 * actual class returned by <code>getClass()</code>, as opposed to any
 * inherited classes or interfaces) may be registered.  That is,
 * suppose that the
 * <code>com.mycompany.mypkg.GreenServiceProvider</code> class
 * implements the <code>com.mycompany.mypkg.MyService</code>
 * interface.  If a <code>GreenServiceProvider</code> instance is
 * registered, it will be stored in the category defined by the
 * <code>MyService</code> class.  If a new instance of
 * <code>GreenServiceProvider</code> is registered, it will replace
 * the previous instance.  In practice, service provider objects are
 * usually singletons so this behavior is appropriate.
 *
 * <p> To declare a service provider, a <code>services</code>
 * subdirectory is placed within the <code>META-INF</code> directory
 * that is present in every JAR file.  This directory contains a file
 * for each service provider interface that has one or more
 * implementation classes present in the JAR file.  For example, if
 * the JAR file contained a class named
 * <code>com.mycompany.mypkg.MyServiceImpl</code> which implements the
 * <code>javax.someapi.SomeService</code> interface, the JAR file
 * would contain a file named: <pre>
 * META-INF/services/javax.someapi.SomeService </pre>
 *
 * containing the line:
 *
 * <pre>
 * com.mycompany.mypkg.MyService
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p> The service provider classes should be to be lightweight and
 * quick to load.  Implementations of these interfaces should avoid
 * complex dependencies on other classes and on native code. The usual
 * pattern for more complex services is to register a lightweight
 * proxy for the heavyweight service.
 *
 * <p> An application may customize the contents of a registry as it
 * sees fit, so long as it has the appropriate runtime permission.
 *
 * <p> For more details on declaring service providers, and the JAR
 * format in general, see the <a
 * href="../../../../technotes/guides/jar/jar.html">
 * JAR File Specification</a>.
