Loads the keystore using the given KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter.

Note that if this KeyStore has already been loaded, it is reinitialized and loaded again from the given parameter.

Parameters
`param`	`KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter`: the `KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter` that specifies how to load the keystore, which may be `null`

Throws
`IllegalArgumentException`	if the given `KeyStore.LoadStoreParameter` input is not recognized
`IOException`	if there is an I/O or format problem with the keystore data. If the error is due to an incorrect `ProtectionParameter` (e.g. wrong password) the `Throwable#getCause` of the `IOException` should be an `UnrecoverableKeyException`
`NoSuchAlgorithmException`	if the algorithm used to check the integrity of the keystore cannot be found
`CertificateException`	if any of the certificates in the keystore could not be loaded

engineLoad

Loads the keystore from the given input stream.

A password may be given to unlock the keystore (e.g. the keystore resides on a hardware token device), or to check the integrity of the keystore data. If a password is not given for integrity checking, then integrity checking is not performed.

Parameters
`stream`	`InputStream`: the input stream from which the keystore is loaded, or `null`
`password`	`char`: the password used to check the integrity of the keystore, the password used to unlock the keystore, or `null`

Throws
`IOException`	if there is an I/O or format problem with the keystore data, if a password is required but not given, or if the given password was incorrect. If the error is due to a wrong password, the `Throwable#getCause` of the `IOException` should be an `UnrecoverableKeyException`
`NoSuchAlgorithmException`	if the algorithm used to check the integrity of the keystore cannot be found
`CertificateException`	if any of the certificates in the keystore could not be loaded

engineSetCertificateEntry

public abstract void engineSetCertificateEntry (String alias, 
                Certificate cert)

Assigns the given certificate to the given alias.

                byte[] key, 
                Certificate[] chain)

Assigns the given key (that has already been protected) to the given alias.

If the protected key is of type java.security.PrivateKey, it must be accompanied by a certificate chain certifying the corresponding public key.

If the given alias already exists, the keystore information associated with it is overridden by the given key (and possibly certificate chain).

Parameters
`alias`	`String`: the alias name
